There was some confusion over the previous poll "What is your favorite stroke?", as the word "favorite" can be interpreted many different ways. For example, someone may think it's his/her favorite because it's most graceful and likes to watch this stroke the most, but he/she may not necessarily swim this stroke.
So this is the new poll.
Please only select the stroke you PERSONALLY train and spend most time swimming (and thinking about).

Even non-freestylers will tell you they do mostly freestyle. It's the stroke you do the most in warmup, it's the stroke most used in cooldowns, and the stroke most used on off-stroke days.
As a back swimmer, most of my time is spent on my back or on techniques relating to back. Very little of my time is devoted to freestyle. Many pro coaches recommend variety and I don't disagree.
