Butterfly is one of the more technical strokes that a swimming coach has to teach. Through this video presented by the University of Louisville's Arthur Albiero, you will learn how to help your swimmers get the most out of their butterfly training. Inside, there are numerous strategies for planning out your season, refining stroke technique, building strengths and training fast starts and turns.

Season Plan and Progression

Coach Albiero highlights how he plans a season for his butterfly swimmers. He goes through details of his weekly planning as well as his season-long cycles.

A full butterfly progression is introduced and explained, along with points of emphasis for each drill. This will help take every level of butterfly swimmer from the basics up through a full stroke. This drill progression starts from just body movement, then adds in elements in a progressive manner. The sequence ends with the full butterfly stroke in addition to Albiero's points of emphasis on the butterfly.

Butterfly Drills

To ensure you get the most out of your swimmers, Coach Albiero highlights some in-water strength training exercises. Additionally, he offers an overview of ways to improve starts and turns, which are things that every swimmer can improve on.

This video has something for all coaches. Coach Albiero's progression can be used for all levels of swimmers, while the season planning and strength building exercises are more appropriate for advanced and upper-intermediate swimmers. Gain some brilliant insight for faster times in the fly!

Arthur Albiero's All-Encompassing Approach to Butterfly Training

I swim with a Masters team, and as is typical, butterfly is the least popular stroke among my teammates, so our coaches seldom give it much attention in our workouts.
However, I love swimming butterfly in Masters meets and normally have to come up with my own butterfly drills & training sets during our team workouts.
I like this video because Coach Albiero spends time describing in detail how he has developed a season-long progressive butterfly training plan for his swimmers. This is definitely information that I can use to better plan how I approach and structure my own training.
I also liked the progressive drills that were demonstrated, emphasizing the common fundamental themes of underwater kicking, body position, and tracking stroke counts & kick counts.
I've incorporated a lot of information from this video into my training over the past few weeks. I'm seeing progress and definitely feel that adhering to the advice in the video over the long-term is going to pay off with significant improvement in my butterfly results.
This is not a video that teaches beginning butterfly, but it can be very helpful to improve the performance of intermediate and advanced swimmers.
I highly recommend this video.
