Unveiling the Backstroke Technique:
The backstroke, also known as the back crawl, is a stroke swum on the back with a flutter kick and alternating arm movements. Here’s a breakdown of the backstroke technique along with essential tips for success:
1. Body Position:
Maintain a horizontal and streamlined body position on the water’s surface. Your body should be parallel to the lane, with your face looking upwards.
2. Arm Movement:
The backstroke involves an alternating arm movement. As one arm moves through the water in a circular motion, the other arm recovers above the water. Focus on keeping your arms relaxed and fingers slightly apart for better propulsion.
3. Flutter Kick:
Execute a gentle flutter kick with your legs, keeping them close together. The kick should originate from your hips, creating a smooth and continuous motion.
4. Head Position:
Keep your head still and steady, looking up at the ceiling or the sky. Avoid excessive head movement to maintain balance and streamline.
5. Timing and Coordination:
Achieving the perfect rhythm between your arm strokes and flutter kick is crucial. Practice proper timing and coordination to maintain a consistent pace.
6. Breathing Technique:
As you rotate your arms, coordinate your breathing. Inhale when one arm is in the water, and exhale when the other arm is submerged.
7. Turns and Finishes:
Learn how to execute turns and finishes when swimming backstroke. These skills are essential for competitive swimmers.
