hard to read the text . . . too small, not on long enough, and blurry

for backstroke you put "The arm not in the water should be pulling water" face-palm. breastroke: arms and legs go seperately. When i teach little kids how to swim i teach them the rhythm pull-breathe-kick-glide not pull/kick-breathe-glide. freestyle- 45 degree angle is to much of an angle for the head, the neck should be bent like 3 degrees up

@Minkymoo222 <-- This guy is right, but it is also important to explain that in competative events, you have to stick with one stroke the entire time. So you couldn't perform a 100 medly for a freestyle event. But you could do the entire length butterfly, or the entire thing breast. The reason behind this, is because each stroke has a set of core muscles that is flexes the most, and has the most resistance, so if someone keeps switching strokes, they can spread out which muscles are tired

crap utter crap

Because you don't have to do front crawl, you can do any stroke whatsoever. Theoretically, if you were fastest at the fly you could win the olympic freestyle gold using butterfly if you beat everyone else! Freestyle just means there are NO STIPULATIONS as to stroke etiquette like there are for the other recognized strokes, i.e one breath per stroke in breast.
