swim anatomy

Swim anatomy refers to how your body moves and functions in water, optimized for efficient swimming. Key muscles involved include the shoulders, back, core, hips, and legs, working together to generate propulsion. The shoulders and arms pull through the water, while the core and hips help maintain streamlined body position. Leg muscles kick and propel you forward. Flexibility and strength are important for smooth, powerful strokes. Proper technique and coordination of these muscle groups reduce fatigue and improve speed. Understanding swim anatomy helps swimmers refine movements, prevent injuries, and swim more effectively.
