Stroke techniques

Stroke techniques refer to specific styles and methods used to maneuver the hands, arms, and body to propel a swimmer efficiently through the water. Common strokes include freestyle (front crawl), backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly, each with unique arm and leg movements that maximize speed and conserve energy. Proper technique involves correct body position, breathing, and coordinated movements, which help reduce resistance and improve efficiency. Learning these techniques often involves focused practice, instruction, and repetition to achieve smooth, effective, and sustainable swimming motion.
