The back

Some teachers propose the back as the first style for its presumed respiratory advantages, however this technique has some disadvantages related to the biomechanical levers that act in disadvantageous conditions. The ideal position of the back swim is more inclined than that which one tends to assume in free style

Underwater apnea is a sport that is practiced within a defined "special" environment (ie in water); moreover, by definition, the athletic performance of the freediver is determined by the ability to hold the breath, a variable that heavily affects the dangerousness levels of the discipline

Dolphin

Even the dolphin, like the frog, represents an artistic swim, which is usually taught as a third style precisely because it is the biomechanical succession of the support gesture - grip - traction - thrust, typical of the crawl and the back. Data sheet Type of movement Simultaneous, symmetrical and cyclical for both upper and lower limbs

The crawl

The crawl provides alternating and cyclic movements of the upper and lower limbs; on the action of the arms a lateral type of respiration is inserted, which can be performed on one side only, or alternatively on the right and on the left (normally every 3 strokes you breathe; NB. When you come out with your face to breathe, you need to keep the respective shoulder as an optical reference point, so as to avoid raising the head excessively by slowing down the swim)

Swimming school

objectives of adult courses Introduction It often happens that the swimming instructor finds himself having to always choose between the same exercises, risking to fall into monotony, and then to make users lose the desire to continue learning to swim. The answer to this problem lies in continuous programming; in order to do this, it is necessary to have in mind the objectives of the type (level) of course that you are presiding over

Frog

The frog is an artistic style, the only one in which progress is obtained by successive pushes. Compared to the other styles there is no push for the arms: the succession is therefore support, traction and recovery. The position of the body is very inclined due to the frontal breathing, which is favored by the raising of the shoulders
