The purpose of the "push" movement during the butterfly stroke is **to propel the swimmer forward**. This push occurs as the hands exit the water and are pushed back to propel the body forward in conjunction with the powerful kick and body undulation. It is a critical part of gaining speed and efficiency in the stroke.
