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.

    There is a problem with your reasoning about buoyancy. First most good sprinters and breaststrokers will sink if not swimming. Second,as you go faster swimming at the surface you will automatically rise in the water as you go faster than your bow wave. At slower speeds buoyancy helps,but not really at faster speeds. Yea I'd agree with this. There were huge variances in the longer duration swim times, but my 50fr time remained pretty much the same.
