In freestyle and backstroke, perhaps everyone has a favorite side to start the first stroke, either left arm, or right arm, making the first pull. How many can start on both sides equally well? Even if not equally well, how many can nonetheless make a fairly okay start on the weaker side? Do the professionals train on both sides?
I can start my pull on either arm, but I almost never do. I generally pull first with my left arm on free, which is my weaker side, but also the side to which I like to breathe.
