Fully agree that wall explanation is fantastic @@Swimtopian

Glad it helps!

i agree!

i really enjoyed the Wall example !! And i watched on how to float on your back even and came back for the easier and simple things down to this !! 😄

Glad it helps

Please try and let me know how you feel to have the arms going to the side in the water. Thanks

@@Swimtopian I tried this way today and it is so much better. It’s easier and a more efficient stroke.

@@thecatniplife Very good to know. Thanks for the feedback

Is that the correct way pro swimmers do ot it just designed for beginners at the learning stage?

It really helped me .. thank you

So you are suggesting the final palm position just before lifting up for recovery is facing at the bottom of the pool or facing my thigh?

@@Swimtopian On your thigh, so thumb is already pointing up. If your palm is facing the bottom of the pool, all the energy from that little wrist snap goes straight down rather than back towards the wall. I used to do back stroke flutter kick lengths just learning the final half of the arm pull. Out to the side and then to the thigh. You can feel a difference. I also have a thing about bubble plumes, since they are such good indicators of what is happening. The bubbles on the palm down go straight to the bottom of the pool. It is some thing that any freestyle coach would correct if you were doing it, but no one seems to think about it for back stroke. In freestyle they say to keep your fingers pointed to the bottom of the pool for the entire pull, except for the last little wrist snap. So, for back stroke, I would say keep the fingers and palm pointed to the side of the pool for the whole stroke except last bit at the end where they point to the wall you are swimming away from. Hope that makes some sense.

Try using a nose clip to start with

You can breathe every 2 arm cycles or breathe anytime you like

Start with holding pool noodles with each hand. Kick slightly so your lower body can come up the surface. Ears in the water and eyes look straight up the sky. When you get more comfortable release the noodles from your hands

Thanks for the quick response. I’ll follow it and see if I can do better since my legs sink when I move my arms now

Hi, you need to learn to breathe with your mouth and nose when swimming in backstroke. Also if you are splashing too much during your stroke rotation that could mean your body line is too deep below the surface of the water. It takes lots of practice to have your body line sitting as close to the surface as possible.

You can start with your feet and hands on the wall. Head look up the sky and ears in the water. Once ready then push off the wall.

hi kid

@@NotPojavXDwhy do you care if he’s a kid he’ll get old soon

For beginners just do an open turn. That means swim till your hand touches wall, bring your legs to the wall and push off on your back

@@Swimtopian pls do you have a video of that

Honestly I don't have that problem but I do know some swimmers face this issue. I would advise you to get a pair of swimming earplugs. They do help I was told

It happens to many swimmmers

You need to warm up and do more stretching

I should change it to "Above Average Joe" right? 😂😂😂

On backstroke you would breathe the same rhythm as you would with freestyle. For me every 2 strokes 1 breathe

Grow a pair of eyes at the back of your head. Hahaha just kidding

I got 1st place at my swimming gala in school tysm

This is a very common problems faced by many swimmers especially if you are swimming in an outdoor pool. Indoor pool you can gauge by looking at the ceiling. You can tilt your head up and look at the starting point occasionally to check if you are swimming straight.

@@Swimtopian I had a few embarrassing moments where I started to swim backstroke from the deep area of the pool and end up in the shallow area where all the kids and mothers were swimming 😂😂. Btw, thanks for tips Joe.

Breathe in and out with the mouth on backstroke

Yes thanks for reminding. Please keep your eyes looking at the sky/ceiling then your head should be floating on the water

Try breathe with your mouth open when swimming on your back

Sorry I don't really understand

Thanks for watching

Yes he is
