Another fun drill to try. If you're having a hard time doing multiple strokes a butterfly in a row would be to alternate a stroke a butterfly with a stroke of breaststroke while using a dolphin kick for both. Because of the similar body patterns between breaststroke and butterfly, sometimes it's easy to alternate between the two. Since the brushstroke is a little easier to do than butterfly, it gives you a little bit of a break between the strokes.

You can try it without fins, or if you want a little bit more push from the back you can put some fins on. So you can use large fins or this swimmer uses some smaller fins. But it really is about maintaining the same rhythm between the breaststroke and the butterfly
