Core work? Just curious...my only advice to you is to kick at the top of your stroke AND at the bottom, and try to keep your butt just beneath the surface of the water. That's all I have...Kelly B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01714590623942266353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021154093098498497.post-78248979387663362292008-10-28T03:50:00.000-06:002008-10-28T03:50:00.000-06:00You just make me smile sooooo much!

Flippers are definitely a good thing to get the feel - but hey Jenna and Kelly are the ones to give you the advice on butterfly by the sounds of it!<BR/><BR/>When I'm doing my sprints my legs have often lost all feeling by the end - I tell myself it's a good thing!<BR/><BR/>BTW - guess what - beat all the blokes in the pool at training camp - even the youngsters! Well apart from Stu Hayes but then he is a top elite, so I told myself that was ok! Needless to say, they all got me biking and running though - hahahaha!Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07724813805713962903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021154093098498497.post-63985282430605284452008-10-27T21:11:00.000-06:002008-10-27T21:11:00.000-06:00you do realize you are gonna kick some MAJOR ass o...you do realize you are gonna kick some MAJOR ass out there this year, right?<BR/><BR/>NOW about the Hard, hard....Jennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16271587857910381627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021154093098498497.post-78686908072640466152008-10-27T20:26:00.000-06:002008-10-27T20:26:00.000-06:00a friend of mine once referred to the butterfly as...a friend of mine once referred to the butterfly as the drowning dragon!<BR/><BR/>As always babe you never stop amazing me!kelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04254666152131765934noreply@blogger.com
