Cesar	Responded Apr 12, 2009 02:02PM Head-up breaststroke is a drill?. I didn't found it.
virgi	Responded Apr 19, 2009 09:53AM Please, what is "breaststroke kick, holding the pull buoy between your legs as usual"? Could you clarify : I never did this kind of drill. Virgi
Glenn Mills	Responded Apr 20, 2009 04:46PM Hi Virgi. Put a pull-buoy on as you usually would, and kick breaststroke with it. Make sure the buoy doesn't come out. This means you're going to have to use a very narrow kick. Here's an old article that explains it a bit more: http://www.goswim.tv/entries/1741
