Failure since day one

Here I’m gonna rant about my everyday-failing-relationship on Breaststroke.

Swimming is one of the few things I love to do in my life whole heartedly. It’s my hobby. I’m well good with freestyle, backstroke and sidestroke. Sadly breaststroke is what screwing me up every time.

Well, since the very first day they taught me breaststroke, it was alien and was difficult for me. But I didn’t care about much and started doing it somehow in a way I felt correct.Sadly all my friends practice it greatly and they even told it was the easiest stroke! My coach tried to teach it to me so hard but I think he gave up finally cause after one day he didn’t ask me to swim on that :[

So I grew up and it happened a time for me to be independent in the swimming pool. I didn’t pay for a coach and I did swimming by my own. I was very happy with that and I swam and swam until they kick me out of the pool after my time frame.

But still my terms with breaststroke kept failing and failing. Sometimes I was at the same place in the pool without going forward because of my utterly wrong technique. If I have tried breaststroke “n” times, I’m pretty sure each and every time I tried it in different way but nothing closer to the original way.
Sometimes my arm technique was right but leg wrong and vice versa. Sometimes both were correct but breathing pattern sucked. Sometimes I became so close to the correct technique but then my pool time was out so I couldn’t try on that way more,, and then on the next day I forgot that correct technique.

So still this thing goes like a vicious cycle and I really have no idea when will I will be able to practice breaststroke in the correct way. But I’m sure I will keep trying it more and more.
