The other day when I read the thread of FREESTYLE STROKE I found many technique terms of swimming, like catch water, anchor your hand, etc. Or shall I say a lot of swimming physics or principles?
Could someone recommend some onlie free articles about this swimming physics? I am a new swimmer.
Thanks a lot.

Unfortunately the treatment of sculling is just plain wrong. Hands do not produce lift the way that airplane wings do, they produce forward force by their angle to the water. It was true in Maglischo's 2nd edition (in fact most of this book was based on this assumption), and became false in the third's edition :shakeshead:
