specifically fly and free? I've always liked backstroke. I want to add it to my repertoire even though I'll likely never be very good at it. I notice it seems to tax my shoulders and legs in ways my body isn't used to - but maybe this is a good thing if it is strengthening my weaknesses?

I think backstroke helps strengthen the shoulders and upper back for better overall joint health/stability. I think dolphin kick on the back also is great for abs. I like IM sets a lot; the back segment seems to loosen what the fly segment tightened up while still getting conditioning.
