If you don't know how to do this stroke this might help you a little.
Each arm stroke has been divided into 5 phases: (1) the entry and stretch (2) the down sweep (3) the catch (4) the insweep, and (5) the upsweep and recovery. Where the relations between armstrokes and leg kicks are concerned, swimmers use a variety of rhythms. The six-beat rhythm is most widely used . In it they use six whole leg beats during each stroke cycle. A complete leg beat includes both an upbeat and a downbeat. Other combinations of kick per stroke cycle are the two-beat, two-beat crossover, four-beat, and four-beat crossover rhythms.
