Are the way you stroke with your right arm supposed to be semetrical with the way you stroke with your left arm, because I stroke in a different pattern with my left arm than with my right, I suppose that's normal. Also is swimming considered an anerobic or aerobic sport or both?

There was obviously more to the answer to this question than I anticipated but I think I understand a lot more about anearobic and aerobic activity now and I appreciate all your help in adding to my understanding of the whole subject. Because it does get kind of complex and in depth and I can see why I was so confused. I hope this has helped dispell some incorrect definitions of the two activities for others as well. If I got what you said strait then anearobic and aerobic activity are defined by the way muscles power themselves: its aerobic activity if the muscles are pulling oxygen from the bloodstream, its anearobic if the muscles pull glycogen out of muscles. That would mean that wrestling would be mostly an anearobic sport, correct?
