"Do you have an exercises to be able to go longer without breathing for strokes like butterfly/free(basically the only things you need to worry about breathing on)?"

My team does 8x50’s underwater kick (least amount of breathing possible) as part of warmups…that helps. Basically, you have to practice your breathing at practice, there are no dry land exercises I know of (besides walking around holding your breath)
