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?
YES, any stroke helps the other strokes, even backstroke.
I find if I improve in one stroke I usually improve in all of them.
