Do you have a video that can tell you how to stop inhaling water when your doing your backstrokes

[lucamarco]

Very interesting as usually are yours clips.

[Arabiangigachad]

I got a swimmeet kinda nervous but damn that was good

[OnwardandUpward]

Wait, so is “butt to heels” the preferred way to set up for a backstroke start? We aren’t doing 90 degree knees with a straight back anymore?

[Notbuyinganyofit]

Please do a video about the new FINA rules. You can be submerged for the last 5m?

[TimmyTammy]

Can you do a video about the swimmer Tara Yummy

He actually is not really entering the pinky first it is very close to be flat i.e., all fingers at about same time, I noticed this in may new backstrokers. Your comments.

Were the backstroke start rules different back then? My children, who do USA swimming, are required to have their entire foot, including toes, submerged before the start. This becomes annoying at times when 9-10 year olds are trying to pull down the wedge, but don't get it down quite low enough for the entire foot to be submerged. All the other swimmers are holding onto the blocks for what seems like forever. Anyway, very different than what is shown here with only part of Ryan's heel submerged. The rules are constantly changing!

Great anylisis Coach, but in terms of pointing his toes, don't you mean he's pointing them in the direction he's NOT trying to go?

Bro you are in no position to critique Ryan Murphy‘s backstroke
