You've probably heard this a lot but PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE - especially sprints. Depending on your age, you might also choose to do some weight training to build up up upper body strength.

The main reason swimmers lose vital seconds in swimming Fly is because their Kicking rhyme is weak;For example,If you swim in a competiton and you've just done the 3rd lenght of the butterly,You are tired therefore swimmers start to miss out the second kick to the fly,This is bad as th second kick brings you back up from the water to aplly the next stroke,So you nedd to remember to block out the pain and contiuosly keep that wo beat kick

And a another thing is To make sure to do to least 4 dolphin legs from a turn as you are quicker under than over water,This will=2 seconds if you didnt kick fromthe wall.
