In my own experience, in both free and back (especially backstroke), if my initial 1-2 strokes went wrong (e.g. too slow, or paused, or lost rhythm), then it ruins the whole lap. It seems the inertia from the start determines if the rest of the lap will be successful or not. Can you fully recover from a start that went wrong and still finish a good lap?

I am not talking about a race, just daily practice to swim well. When I say recover, I don't mean to be able to get the speed as if you started well. I simply mean to recover the good form and rhythm. :)
