    Breastroke swum quickly consumes more energy than freestyle or backstroke because breastroke is essentially accelerating and decelerating over and over. However - many people choose breastroke to swim easy because it is easier to breathe. In that case I bet breastroke is less tiresome and consumes less energy.
