Hahaha, keep in mind, they are also swimming in 50 meter increments... eliminating a turn on the way down for 50 freestyle. 2 turns eliminated in total in a 100. And in total 4 turns eliminated in a 200. So not only will meters need to be converted to yards, but you need to keep in mind that Olympians are doing less turns because their pool is twice as long.
Breaststroke being my worst stroke of all 4, my coach asked me to watch videos of olympics breastroke so I can look at perfect form and what-not. I'm glad he asked me to do that, coz I'm so fascinated by the raw power the swimmers are able to put onto the water to push themselves forward
I think Breaststroke is one of the hardest ones of all 4.....its not that easy..... It's like balancing their own body weight in the water by holding their breath...... I think Eventhough lifting and pushing their bodies by going with that kind of style is not that easy.....
Women swimmers peak earlier than men. They can win olympic medals at 14,15 and dominate. Most men can't do that and if they do its very rare and they have to be like 17/18. But men can swim competitively till the early 30s and sometimes late 30s. Most female swimmers retire in their late 20s-early 30s.
I'm a breaststroker and Rebecca Soni is one of my inspirations😊🏊♀️ Her technique is amazing😍 I was so happy for her while watching this I actually jumped off of the couch and screamed😂
Soni was a Killer in the pool... She came out of nowhere and killed Liesel Jones in 2008.... then killed the world record and the 2:20 mark.... When she focused and got her rhythm and tempo going there was no stopping her...A great swimmer and great sportsman... what a credit to the USA and to all of swimming she was...
some? all! every one of those girls worked so, so very hard for their spot in that pool. there is no place in the olympics for raw talent alone. that was extensive training. ahhhh, the CHLORINE :D
Beautiful! I love that the cameras are able to get underwater more often than they did over 30 years ago! But I'm so old school, I miss the regular 1 piece swimsuit style they used to wear. I don't really care for the body suit style in the last few years. Oh well.
My style back in the day. I did excel as a youth competitor in the 50m race. Enjoyed the thrill of the last strokes and the taste of victory tremendously. 100m though was a whole different ballgame. Endurance was my nemesis and I'd come 2nd 8 times ou of 10 to the same girl (and childhood friend) I'd beat in the 50m! I'd be upset with myself every single time.
This is probably Soni's best swim. But my favorite was when she took out Liesel Jones of Australia in the 2008 olympics, blowing past her in the last 60 meters.
Rebecca Soni you are soooo awesome and inspiring!!! My name is Rebecca too and I love breaststroke! But I am swimming my first 200 breast today so wish me luck😬
oh boy I have never swam (like on a team but i know how to swim like im not gonna drown lmao) but like Monday is practice for my club team which will get me ready for like actual swimming or whatever at school i guess but what if i like mess up like idk any tips?
Hi, this is Ed Accura , co-founder of the Black Swimming Association and producer of the film documentary A Film Called Blacks Can’t Swim. I personally believe that Black Youth Culture could be what breaks the cycle of the generation-long issue with a disproportionate amount of black people NOT swimming I would like to hear your views and comments on the 2 info videos I WON’T SWIM and THINK ABOUT IT. Let's change the narrative. I appreciate your support.
I gonna join swim again I haven't did it since the summer my fave strokes thou were free style and breast stroke my teacher said I had a very strong Brest stroke so I might be rust but I'm gonna work on it I need to get in shape fast ...
yeah. I think that's why I love scy because I'm pretty good at underwaters because I have strong legs. Keeping my stroke together is a bit of a problem lc though.
The world record was broken at the 2013 World Champs by Rikke Pedersen(2:19.11) I thought that Soni would be the only woman ever to go under 2:20 but now Pedersen and Efimova have gone under 2:20 at the worlds
I beg to differ. Some swimmers have a huge dependency on turns, because that push off the wall can be very beneficial for some swimmers, especially sprinters. I mean a turn can bring a person in 4th place, to 1st place (depending on the velocity of their turn).
Вот молодец Сони! Продемонстрировала силу, мощь, и желание победить основных соперниц в финале на 200 м.по плаванию. Она заслуженнно завоевала очередную золотую медаль да еще с новым мировым рекордом!
200m breaststroke long course is such a hard race. My legs were like 100x worse than they usually are after a race and I’m pretty good at breaststroke.
it is more fun though. everyone swimmer is different, some are better suited for lcm and some are better at short course races. I'm not trying to start an argument, I'm just amazed at these Olympians swimming incredible times.
totally agree, lmaoooo. but like yeah i agree. because once swimminglong course you get used to it then you go to short course and youre like "double that aww man' you know what i mean
me: my time is not THAT far from this
also me: realizes that she's swimming meters
my self confidence:📉
Lol. 😂

@@jacobbloom3281 Would that slow them down or make them faster do you think? Maybe it's an individual kinda thing, idk
@@lemondots2277 for them? It'd slow them down. These people have turns and underwaters down to a science.

Breaststock
Seriously I also struggle to keep my body and hips on top of water when I pull. I feel so “heavy” and it’s hard to propel forward.
As a swimmer this makes me feel slow
I know right!!
very slow
Same, glad I wasn't the only one
+Emma Aqua Well, why don't u be an Olympic winner, champion?
it makes me feel slow too...
Great swim by Suzuki! Love seeing athletes that just take every opportunity and get the best out of themselves when it really counts.
High .
Good!!!
*who else is just watching their strokes to be better swimmers?*
cause I am Rebecca has such a beautiful breaststroke!
Theonlineclan AJ I think everyone here is
*Fist me daddy*
Theonlineclan AJ meeee
Theonlineclan AJ me 😀😂
Me!
Welp, highschool swim team is... A little slower.
I feel ya
@@rezmy10488 yeah I guess
@@ekatmafullington3355 cool
Lmaoaoa
i know right - 💀
omg 200m i think i would die choking in the pool
same I wouldn't even make it at the middle
My coach makes us do the 200 fly
The Animal Lover what? Sometimes our coach makes us do swims like 4 100s fly
Our coach makes us do 100 fly sprints to get ready for the races lol
but once she put some of us in the mile race :O
Rebekah Brockway That's not good at all rebecca, 200m is nothing.
This Rebecca Soni girl has a style that has never been seen before. .She is amazing ..
I love watching them because it helps me realize I shouldn't give up now bc I can be like that if I work for it
So sad she retired... Would really have loved to see her in Rio to defend the title.
she got old. 29
Matt Mcgavin Could have had one last Olympics, but I guess she was content.

Breaststroke is my worse stroke I have respect for all these woman cause it is not easy.
Same here xD I'm a backstroker
So am I XD
sheesh. i find backstroke terrifying!
Really?
yup. no clue why, since just last year i was racing in that event. crazy, dunno what happened, but it's like i can't breathe anymore.
2.19 MINUTES???? AMAZING!
all swimmers were awesome
what do u mean were there are a lot of great swimmers in the world
Were? So you're saying not anymore? Wtf
I'm a breaststroker and Rebecca Soni is one of my inspirations😊🏊♀️ Her technique is amazing😍 I was so happy for her while watching this I actually jumped off of the couch and screamed😂
josephine phillips
She’s awesome:) You are too! Keep going:)
when i 6-7 years old im a backstroker but now after i watching this im a breastroker
I love how my 50 breaststroke time is like almost a minute. 🤣
It is definitely my worst stroke
@『ｒe n 』 for the 50?
@『ｒe n 』 not judging, my 50 backstroke is probably around there, but I didn't know if you meant 50 or 100
@『ｒe n 』 no problem! I'm bad at picking up on context sometimes, but it's obvious to me now
Soni was a Killer in the pool... She came out of nowhere and killed Liesel Jones in 2008.... then killed the world record and the 2:20 mark.... When she focused and got her rhythm and tempo going there was no stopping her...A great swimmer and great sportsman... what a credit to the USA and to all of swimming she was...
I really like this girl, so kind .... she will be performing at the Olympics in 2016? please reply)
Sad to say that she won't. She announced her retirement last year. She said she had achieved her dream in swimming(being able to break the 2:20 mark).
jaechunsuJYJ so sorry ... I fell in love))
10 years later and i still find myself coming back to this race every now and then
The last 50 meters were incredible.....Never seen such a finish in any final...
I can't wait to see the 2016 olympics
ME TOO!!!!! LETS GO SWIMMERS!!!!
what is your favorite Stroke?
+Anita Pineapple BUTTERFLY And yes.... im crazy if i love that stroke AHAHA
Me too!!
+Sloth lover 816 YAYYY
Yay Rebecca Soni! I am so sad that she retired, she's my role model! (\O.O/)
The difference between her turnover on the first 50 and the last 50 is incredible!
A 50 meters lap under 32 seconds? How the heck they do that? It took me 1 minute and 3 seconds.
you are very slow
yes very very slow😒😔
My time for 50 brst. Is 43 seconds
+0Purple Banana0 38 its my time
me too
I haven't swam in years but this makes me miss it
YOUS SHOUOD OF NEVER GIVEN UPPP
some of these swimers are amazeing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
some? all! every one of those girls worked so, so very hard for their spot in that pool. there is no place in the olympics for raw talent alone. that was extensive training. ahhhh, the CHLORINE :D
She was great, I mean her swim was perfect, she was a little bit close to win in 100 metres but in 200 metres she rocked.
@2:11 when you tell all your friends you dont want to final cause its a hard race, but make the final anyways
:) She's probably just nervous as heck trying not to vomit in the pool.
6:30
oof that streamline is on fleek
Tatjana Schoenmaker just breaks this world record in Tokyo 2020.
Soni's stroke is simply flawless
"2:10 won't be broken for a while"
Video starts at 3:25
now i am a swimmer because of Rebecca soni
so proud
Tommorrow will be my school swimming gala and i am watching this hahahhaa
I have a question about the numbers by where the state they are what is the numbers for
Beautiful! I love that the cameras are able to get underwater more often than they did over 30 years ago! But I'm so old school, I miss the regular 1 piece swimsuit style they used to wear. I don't really care for the body suit style in the last few years. Oh well.
literally my idol, Rebecca Soni!!!!!!!
What’s the swimming type called they are using?
The world is proud of you Rebecca 👩👩👧👧
this is sooooo cool i swim and i love how she swims
She can't retire :(
What are your best time at breaststroke 50meters short course?
I know this kid his name is Ethan Dang and for long course 50m he got 25 seconds cause he's an age group record holder google him
My style back in the day. I did excel as a youth competitor in the 50m race. Enjoyed the thrill of the last strokes and the taste of victory tremendously. 100m though was a whole different ballgame.

Bravo fetelor pentru ceea ce faceți
Powerful and beautiful !
Congratulations Rebecca Soni. You are ambition and you are very good swimmer !
This is probably Soni's best swim. But my favorite was when she took out Liesel Jones of Australia in the 2008 olympics, blowing past her in the last 60 meters.
Rebecca Soni is absolutely sensational the last 50 meters she was flying with afterburners.
Impressive extra gear...
Rebecca Soni used to swim for the team I swim for now, Scarlet Aquatics!!! :D
how many km do yo do in one day?
Victor ribas valdivieso no idea practice is 2 hours long though
Jonathan Luo ok, thanks
Rebecca Soni you are soooo awesome and inspiring!!! My name is Rebecca too and I love breaststroke! But I am swimming my first 200 breast today so wish me luck😬

I gonna join swim again I haven't did it since the summer my fave strokes thou were free style and breast stroke my teacher said I had a very strong Brest stroke so I might be rust but I'm gonna work on it I need to get in shape fast ...
How has it gone?
+Sassy Sabrina best of luck !
Sabrina Rosa i also think you should start again
What happened to her why didn’t she come back in 2016
btw long course are most easier than short course because on short course u will do many turns while on long course it takes a time after turn
They make it look so easy haha, I'm a breaststroker and they don't even make it look somewhat tiring!
yeah. I think that's why I love scy because I'm pretty good at underwaters because I have strong legs. Keeping my stroke together is a bit of a problem lc though.
The world record was broken at the 2013 World Champs by Rikke Pedersen(2:19.11) I thought that Soni would be the only woman ever to go under 2:20 but now Pedersen and Efimova have gone under 2:20 at the worlds

Omg i wish i was as fast as Soni.... Im 12 and i have a 2:46 in 200 breast. Is that good for my age?
Omg i have a 2:46😱
+Kimberly Acosta You're really fast for your age, girl. Keep pushing!
50m, 25m, or 25yd pool?
25yd, but my time inproved. Im 13 and now have a 2:39, but that time sucks :P..trying to break that time
I went a 2:37 as a 13 year old and that's an okay time so I think you're good
She has good technique
I can do that in 30 seconds...
Times 100.
+Alyssa Andela I can do a 200 in 30 seconds if you multiplied 30 seconds times 100.
Np one does 200m in 300 seconds not even Le clos
Trisha M it would be 3,000 seconds
Arlina Thompson yes
Trisha, 300 seconds is 5 mins. Le clos does a 200 in under 2 minutes
They all did well .lovely .☺
as a 14 year old swimmer im 2 seconds away from breaking the world record....
Definitely me I'm just watching to be a better swimmer!
Вот молодец Сони! Продемонстрировала силу, мощь, и желание победить основных соперниц в финале на 200 м.по плаванию. Она заслуженнно завоевала очередную золотую медаль да еще с новым мировым рекордом!
What a sensational moment! Congratulations!!
My lord how many world records did the US swim team break in 2012?...
Lol watch 2008 like everything was broken that year 😂
Breaststroke is my worst stroke but i love it
Alexander Liu I swim breast stroke as a recovery after doing butterfly lol
And then I swim backstroke to recover from the lack of air haha
200m breaststroke long course is such a hard race. My legs were like 100x worse than they usually are after a race and I’m pretty good at breaststroke.
That’s around my 100m freestyle time...
breast stroke and freestyle are very different that’s probably why
Thanks mega shake!!!
👍👍👍👍my daughter manestok
I'm 13 and I'm the best breaststroker and freestyler on my swim team
I really wanna swim a 200 IM in a 50 meter pool. BYU has one so once I start college that's one of the first things I'mma do
Breaststroke is one of the hardest stroke to swim. When the distance increases, my god T.T. I get fatigued so easily!
Yeah, my arms feel burned
Por algo es una de mis pruebas favoritas
starts @ 3:23
I specialize in the short course 200 Breaststroke and I don't think that people get how hard it is to swim this event in the 50 meter pool.
Breaststroke is my fave stroke it’s so relaxing to me
Is it true or is it just me
Look at their muscles soo cool I want to swim that fast!!!
train, practice, eat right foods, enter a team, apply for olympics bam
she's honest and she's retired at 27 years old she's
doing the right thing
it is more fun though. everyone swimmer is different, some are better suited for lcm and some are better at short course races. I'm not trying to start an argument, I'm just amazed at these Olympians swimming incredible times.
totally agree, lmaoooo. but like yeah i agree. because once swimminglong course you get used to it then you go to short course and youre like "double that aww man' you know what i mean
IKR!! Im a swimmer and my best stroke is Breaststroke and it hurts a lot cuz i go too tight i guess :P
There glide is absolutely beautiful! If I took that long to glide, I would stop completely (I'm a flyer XD)
lol.
I'm a swimmer she is awesome I think I learned how to do it faster breast stroke is my best swim then free then fly then back
Rebecca soni women version of PHELPS
LoomNatics Channel NO. Rebecca Soni is Rebecca Soni. Phelps is Phelps.
LoomNatics Channel women version of Phelps is Missy Franklin
LoomNatics Channel Actually, Missy Franklin is the female version of Michael Phelps.
QueenBHydra Nope, not even close. Ledecky is on Phelps' level. The others aren't on that level.
Inediblehulk nope! Missy Franklin is THE FEMALE VERSION OF PHELPS!!!!!!!!!
My favorite Soni race was in 2008 when she took out the favored Liesel Jones in the 200m breast.... blew her away in the last 75 meters...
2:32 funny guy in blue shirt lol
nice gliding by effimova in the first 100m. 15 or 16 strokes if I counted correctly
Rebbeca soni u are my Inspiration!!!! I am the best at my school ini Breasttroke and I hope I will get as far as u!!!!!
Rikke Peddersen ❤❤❤
breaststroke and freestyle are my favorite styles of swimming. im learning butterfly next, im so scared.
Whoa, 2:19.59, what the Hale is going on with that ?
Breathstoke is my best stroke (:
It's not hard it all depends on your glide
WoW... I don't think I can do that ;-;
that was amazing
am about to learn that style
ya breaststroke is so tiring especially the last 100m of a 200m.the legs get so sore!!!!
Wow. . . crazy. . . !!!! Great!!!
I was a breaststroker and my arms would start to kill me that last 75 of the 200 breast haha
