This is actually the best video I've seen on describing the crawl technique, very simply put and easy to understand, most vids try and baffle you with science

Oh my god, thank you so much. I’m 21 years old and learning how to swim and I could not understand what I was doing with my arms. I thought that my arms were supposed to wind back and scoop, not reach and pull. Thank you so so much. Every time I tried to ask people, they were making it sound confusing.

As a beginner swimmer this is very useful for me to do when I practice. While I am terrible at breathing, I think having the arms in the proper form will make it easier. Thank you!

[TheDjith]

Damn!! So easy and smooth looking.. makes me look like a panicking drowning dog 😂😅

Took me 3 months of 5 days swimming per week that i finally went from 1 lane, to 4 to 16 a 25m. I took freestyle lesson and applicatie it every day. Had moments that i thought of drowning

Most teachers don’t mention the body rotation thank you

[modigbeowulf]

I use all different types of stroke. I swim for 90 minutes a day. It breaks the boredom to switch. But this looks the fastest and most efficient.

[MR-AK]

Thanks for this. My stroke is decent but when i turn to breathe i feel like im gasping for air and do not catch enough air till my stroke is ended and i have to breathe again quickly. Any drills just to practice breathing? Sometimes when i turn to breathe but body sinks a little.

Can you plzz suggest me any cream, lotion or gel which will protect me from the water during i mean from chlorine water

[MarijaCZadar]

Looks so simple! For me, the most problematic part is the moment when the elbow is supposed to go high when it's out of the water. I feel like I'm ballet dancing wth it, instead of swimming. CanNOT grasp that movement at

[isabellazz]

What’s 6 beat kick, 2 beat kick whatever
I don’t get it

Felipe obrigada pelo seu gentil email. Eu moro no Texas, e me interesso pela natacao como atividade fisica. Eu comecei engatinhar no esporte aos 50 hoje tenho 66. Nunca desisti mas tive muitas interrupcoes. Aqui eu pratico na YMCA. Digo que continuo o aprendizado. Sucesso no canal. Se eu puder ser util so falar. Um abraco

[joejoe-lbbw]

The movement should be in the scapular plane, right. If it is not your just adding weight above your streamline and (for non-pros) will compensate to keep the body higher in the body. Also, excessive shoulder rotation above the frontal plane can cause damage.

Ma'am, whenever I try to pull my arm underwater I feel a downward drag pulling my whole body down, starting with the legs. I am unable to identify what I am doing wrong.

[smakarevich]
