Why can’t the freestyle legs be played?
Swimming is a whole-body exercise, and the activity of any part cannot be separated from the coordination and cooperation of the whole body. On the surface, freestyle relies on paddling and kicking to generate propulsion. But when you are swimming freely, your legs sink, your legs can't hit, and you don't have the paddle in place, do you often have this question?
Two problems with leg punching
First of all, the following situations may occur if the leg is not hit:
A: The leg kick is wrong, I only care about kicking the calf, the effect of water is not good, and I practice too little leg punching
B: The ventilation is wrong. Freestyle is turning your head and breathing, not turning your head. Look at the pool side of your eyes to ventilate. Your head is partly in the water and partly in the water. The ventilation is in an instant. The eyes should look directly below the bottom of the pool. Correction method
Step 1, should practice leg punching first. Leg hitting is very particular. At the beginning, you should pay special attention to it until you raise your head and hit your legs.
beat Legs: It is the thigh that drives the calf, not just bends the calf, " whip leg ".
Tips straight: Your feet are like ballet dancing, but your ankles are relaxed and your toes are buckled inward.
Release: When hitting your legs, hit slowly first, and feel whether your ankles are moving up and down, and don’t come to it. It is very violent to hit the legs, which makes you feel more tired and have no confidence in freestyle swimming, which makes you feel very difficult.
Step 2 , Leg-kicking step 3, Leg-kicking one arm paddling and ventilation, while slapping, grab the floating plate with one hand, place the other hand next to your thigh, and turn your head to breathe.
Step 3: Picking the floating plate on the thigh and paddling with both arms, and then changing the air at the beginning of the first two times.
Step 4: The whole combination of legs, paddling, and breathing practice, and practice freestyle practice by yourself with the help of auxiliary tools, floating boards, back floats, and flippers.
Improve stroke
Any improvement in exercise level requires full play to the subjective initiative. So let's start with the most basic ones. The fingertips of the hand are extremely sensitive. Use it to improve paddling. Feel how water passes through your fingers. In order not to waste extra energy, you must achieve the maximum effect with the minimum force.
Fingertips must enter the water earlier than everything. Once the entire arm is in water, you have to stretch under the water (as if you reach out to grab something far away) and slide about 10 cm. This ensures that when keeping your shoulders relaxed, there is no need to create a lot of resistance.
Pulling water
The first stage of pulling water is very important. It has two purposes,
1. It will bring upward buoyancy, keep the body close to the water surface,
2, it will start to activate the power of pulling water. How to do this is very important, the palms and the bottom of the pool should be at a 45-degree angle.
3. Where to generate most of the speed: Focus on your hands, treat it as a paddle, and then paddle most of the water in this direction. Finally, about the water pulling part, it is actually overestimated, but if you focus on the full pushing of water, you can use it to prepare to enter the rest phase. Relax your hands during the rest phase. When one hand is sliding, the other hand needs to rest. The paddling begins when one hand rests.
will have some changes for different swimming distances. For example, in short-range competitions, there is no need to skate, but for basic training, this is a good way to train.
Summary:
1. Focus on the water entering the fingers (finger tips).
2. Gently stroke your arm into the water and stretch.
3. Practice 3 steps to paddle well.
4. Relax fully when moving your arms in the air.
