What would you suggest a beginner when it comes to improving breaststroke? I try so hard but I can’t seem to see the results. Some of my friends are already swimming butterfly and I can’t achieve to be good even at this basic swimming discipline. That’s so disappointing and frustrating. I even think about quitting swimming and switching to running. I know that I sound like a crybaby, nut I’m really sad about this.

We’re not all born with the same capacities and talents, but that doesn’t have to mean that we are doomed and that we have to be quitters. My point is, maybe your friends are naturals when it comes to swimming but if you persist and keep on exercising, you can be just like them and even better regardless of the fact that they may improve their skills faster. Find your own pace and do only as much as you feel that you can. Don’t let this discourage you and make you quit swimming. Do you know that the most simple and basic thing tend be hardest to accomplish just because they look so uncomplicated? So, hang on and just listen to your coach and be persistent.
