kick pull kick
head dives down, pop your hips up, don't just let them float up.
When I was swim coaching we did a lot of 1 arm fly into regular fly, lots of 100 IM's, lots of 12.5 fly/12.5 free, lots of 50s doing IM order work (fly/back, back/breast, breast/free, free/fly). Lots of fly kicking on your back both w/ and w/out fins.
(i remember one time one of the kids was being a real ass in practice, the other coach rearranged all the lanes, threw a pair of fins down and told the kid 1000 fly k on your back or you never swim here again. It was LCM) It was all I could do to not lol while working with the other group.
Unless you were specializing in fly we rarely had the kids do anything longer than 100 fly at a time, maybe some 200's here and there. it would be something like 4x(4x200 1 fly 1choice stroke/free & 2 free). we had a lot of sets that may be 5x(5x100 2 fly, 2 free, 1 25fast/75ez)
It's an O2 intensive stroke, the most demanding stroke out there.
Another thing is do free with a fly kick. It'll help with your free timing and you'll get a feel for where to place the kick both in free and fly
hope that helps
