I asked this question under workouts and got no response. hopefully better luck here.
When counting strokes where do you count from? Are you counting 1 arm? or is each arm rotation counted? If I count each arm rotation it takes my 16 strokes to cover 25 yds. What should a typical stroke count be?
Why wouldn't you want to do that? Each stroke you should reach as far as you can, and stream line with one hand as it enters the water.
Well, if I want to, I can swim a 50 freestyle with a stroke count of zero. It's also known as "50 yards kicking". So there is a point at which you get diminishing returns.
