Does anyone have any tips for swimming against current? Do you adjust your stroke?

  • It depends, if swimming against a flat calm constant current; I’d maintain my normal stroke. If I need to swim through an adverse current to get to neutral or positive current, I’ll pick up the pace to get through it quicker. If I’m swimming into a current with chop, I’ll increase my kick and try to work my tempo with the chop and work for a more powerful stroke.
