remember to do kicks close to the water surface
and perform them with almost straight legs
and at the same time to keep them relaxed
many swimmers overestimate the importance of kicking
and end up trying too hard and performing too many kicks
this makes you tired quickly but doesn't give you a lot of speed
in order to swim long distances and avoid getting tired try not to perform as many kicks as you can
instead focus on performing more efficient kicks with a lower rhythm
always perform kicks close to the water surface and keep them straight and relaxed
Arm stroke is important in freestyle swimming
focus on keeping your arm in the correct position
and perform arm stroke with the correct trajectory
before doing the arm stroke, turn your arm inside so that your elbow is directed to the sky
remember to perform all arm strokes with this arm position
do arm strokes with an almost straight trajectory
starting in front and finishing the arm stroke near your leg
Remember that your arms cannot cross the body line
arm strokes should be performed on their own sides
wrong arm position and wrong trajectory can make your arm soak ineffective
often swimmers keep their arm so that the elbow is directed to the floor
and when performing arm strokes, they cross their body line
when it happens swimmers don't get enough power from the arm stroke
remember to keep your arm turned inside
your elbow directed to the sky
to perform arm strokes with an almost straight trajectory
and to not cross the body line while swimming
For smooth freestyle swimming you always need to keep one arm gliding out front
this will help to keep yourself on the water and not sink
many swimmers are in hurry when swimming freestyle
they over perform their arm strokes and put in too much effort
remember to keep your arm in front while your other arm performs the arm stroke and recovers forwards
Don't be in a hurry and perform arm strokes calmly
Start a new arm stroke only when your other arm is close to entering the water
For people who are learning to swim, I recommend to swim freestyle in a slow manner
perform an arm stroke by one arm,
recover it forwards and once your arm touches the other in front
you start a new arm stroke
Remember all these things or just watch this video again before your next swim
What would you include on your checklist if there could be only one main thing?
to perform correct and long arm strokes?
turn your head and inhale properly?
or to perform kicks near the water surface?
