Breaststroke Kick Issues

Do you ever suffer from pain in your knees when you do a breast stroke kick?

I know I have. In my case its a combination of getting older and non swimming related injury. But it not always because of injury or age. Pain in you knees when you do breaststroke can also be from over use too much swimming (over training) and sometimes it can be just because its your body shape.

Whatever the reason it's not fun to want to be a breaststroke swimmer and have to suffer.

This is a great little video (not mine) that gives some excellent ideas on how to work around pain in your knee and still enjoy your breaststroke.

The video is directed towards competitive swimmer but if you ignore those comment then everything that is said can be applied to everyday swimming and even those who have newly learned the stroke.
