Any improvement in exercise level requires full use of 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. The fingertips must enter the water earlier than everything. Once the entire arm is in water, it must be stretched underwater.
(Translator's note: it seems like reaching out to grab something in the distance), gliding about 10 cm. This ensures that when keeping your shoulders relaxed, there is no need to create a lot of resistance.
0 The first stage of water pulling is very important. It has two purposes:
1. It will bring upward buoyancy and 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 palm 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.
The last part about pulling water, it is actually overestimated, but if you focus on the complete push 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. When one hand rests is completed , the stroke begins.
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.
