8 DIFFERENT SWIMMING STROKES

Like with any other skill you want to learn, you have to be really interested in what you’re doing in order to get a good grasp of the techniques. If you’re not that into it, then learning the new skills required will just be a difficult and tiresome chore.

I'm 65 and currently using sidestroke, elementary backstroke, and crawl. I do a lap of each six times for half a mile. Three days a week. Loving it!

My favourite is backstoke but with arms moving like elementary backstoke. Its much relaxing, can keep moving without much arms movement and so less tiring, easy to breath too. Only problem is can't see where we are going.

So glad I found this! I am a recreational swimmer and am not that good at the 4 well known strokes. I always tell people I just like to flail my way through the water. Now I can tell them I mainly do the trudgen and elementary back strokes. 😊 Sounds way better.

I had thought that the Trudgen used a scissor kick rather than the frog/whip kick. The combat swim side stroke is not here, and it is faster than standard side stroke. The over arm side stroke is not here either. Dropped from competition in 1900 in favor of the much slower breast stroke because breast stroke was more 'gentlemanly' because there was less splashing. Similar to CSS, but the top arm recovers over the top like freestyle, under arm does breast stroke pull out stroke. Long axis, and if you drop the scissor kick in favor of the flutter kick, it is faster yet. Record, set in 1895 is 1:02.5 for 100 yards. Faster than breast and back stroke, and can probably hold its own against the fly, but not freestyle. One coach tole me it looked like I was swimming freestyle on my side. Pretty close.

I can't swim but I thought about the movement of it and I swim using that stroke with my life vest while I was doing my kayak capsize exercise. my peers were making fun of me for that, saying that I looked like an octopus

Back stroke are my favorites here’s a story how:
I was at my swim practice and we decided to have a day for different types of strokes so me and the team we decided that we would do back strokes first at the time I didn’t know how to do back strokes so we practiced it for the next ten minutes and then I tried by myself and I was relaxing until I completely relaxed and forgot what I was doing and I fell in the 3 feet water 💦 but just a reminder relax dont slack

What is the name of the swimming type that lays down on your stomach and repel yourself using hands and legs horizontally?

Great tutorial & the first song is everything. Could you please share the artist name?

[scorpionkobra]

For 25 years I thought that Trudgen and Freestyle swimming are the same. I thought only difference is when you keep your head down in water and it's personal preference. Because I always saw Freestyle in sports while regular people keeps their head up during swimming.
