11. Technical swimming knowledge

Backstroke Underwater

Summary

Growing your technical knowledge of swimming will deepen your appreciation of the sport. Pay attention to the language coaches use to describe how to do things. Watch technical videos on the internet. Be curious but critical, and don’t be afraid to experiment with your swimming. Try to follow local swim etiquette when swimming in club or public sessions but be patient with those who don’t.
