Swimming question??????

Question

Ok so I have never really taken swimming lessons, and I am 16. I can swim though, self taught. I wanted to try out for my swim team in the fall, and was wondering the best way to get into shape for that. I have a pool in my yard, 30 ft round 4 ft deep.

other than that, What stroke is it when you swim with your face in the water, and your arms go next to your head repeatidly, and you turn your head for air.

Thanks in advance. My summer here starts in 2 weeks(get out of school)

Answer 1

Just try swimming distances or swim on a summer team.

And The Stroke is Freestyle or Front Crawl.

Answer 2

That would be freestyle. Look into getting a lesson or two before you try out, that will better your chances of getting on the team.

Answer 3

ok try arm workouts like lifting weights so you can build strength.

also swim when no one else is in the pool so u can go back and forth

and maybe try to get to a gym and use a real lap pool

and you can time yourself when you swim a certain distancec then compare it and try to improve. Maybe even record it and keep it for records

thats breast stroke
