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.
This discussion of bouyancy is interesting. My family has all done this test and my wife and daughter float like corks horizontally on the surface. My son & I sink to a vertical position. I must have neutral bouyancy as I will stabilize with the top of my head just below the surface.
But we do remind them that they will always have to be far more mindful of balance skills than more buoyant swimmers.
I have noticed that if I don't concentrate on my body position all the time I will end up swimming with my hips down.
BTW My wife and daughter swim distance and my son & I are sprinters.
