There are basically two ways to swim fast freestyle. By fast freestyle we refer to a distance of 25 or 50 meters or yards. There is the straight arm and the classic arm. The straight arm fast freestyle has become popular among sprinters. In both techniques there is little need to rotate the shoulders as the arms move so fast that rotating a lot would be a waste of time. To do a fast freestyle it is essential that you kick as fast as you can. There should be water splashing behind you as if you had a motor. In a 50 freestyle there is very little margin of error, that is why you need an explosive start and flip turn. Finally, very often you can win or lose by a tenth of a second so a good final touch can make you win the race. The final stroke is a little longer than the rest. You stretch your body as fast and far as you can, rotating more to your side. You should touch with your fingers not with the palm of your hands. Just strong enough to activate the touch pad but not strong enough that you injure your fingers. This takes practice to master, so start slow and build up speed to touch the wall properly.

Swim fast! These tips and techniques will work best to help you improve dramatically your stroke if you do two things: 1- Focus on one thing at a time 2- Practice until you dominate that thing and move to the next. I will also do another series of videos for the other strokes, including starts and turns. There will also be drills and other fun stuff, so make sure to subscribe! I swam for 15 years in the competitive arena and I hope I can transmit my knowledge as clearly and simple as youtube allows me to. I plan on doing a couple of these to spread the knowledge I have acquired on swimming. I will do collaborations with people with even more knowledge and experience to do more advanced type videos. Finally, what I am really passionate about is learning new skills. So the point of this channel is to spread the intrinsic joy that all humans share when we learn something new, doesn't matter how insignificant it might appear. I believe improvement makes us feel more alive and thus, if done right, make a better world. So if you enjoy learning n ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_aAdpzZxGs

We went over how to pull and kick in breaststroke. However, you could learn how to do both perfectly and you would still be missing a big part of what makes the good breaststrokers fast! The glide Depending on the distance they are swimming, olympic breaststrokers can spend around half a second per stroke gliding! In a two hundred meter race, they spend around thirty seconds gliding! Needless to say it is essential to learn this skill. There are three aspects to the perfect glide. Position. To get in the right position to glide you need to pay attention to the head and the hips. The head goes down when the arms go forward. It even goes a little bit passed the parallel line of the body to compensate and help move the hips up. The hips go up a little with the help of the kick and the core muscles. Core. It is essential to have enough core strength in breaststroke to be able to move your body from the pulling / kicking position to a perfect gliding position and back again. These muscles will give you the force and the stabilization necessary for a good stroke technique. Tempo. The final question to talk about remains: how long should the glide be kept before starting to pull again? Well, I am afraid there is no straightforward answer to this, because there are many things to consider like: 1- The distance being swam. 2- The strength of the swimmer. 3- The height of the swimmer Many swimmers even change their tempo considerably within the same event. A faster tempo can feel like you are going faster, but sometimes that is not the case. If you are pulling and kicking correctly with a lot of strength, then it is convenient to glide a little longer. If you are getting tired and your pull and kick weakens maybe it is a good idea to shorten the glide and increase your tempo. We will talk about different racing strategies and good practices on future videos. Leave a comment to let us know what skill you would like to learn and what event you would like to swim faster!
