Swimming Swimming
Swimming is a competitive and recreational activity consisting of many strokes.
The crawl is not an official stroke, but is common all over the world in free style swimming. Breathing is accomplished by turning your head to one side and inhaling.
The backstroke is done by floating on your back. To move you must kick your feet and moving one hand at a time over your head.
The breast stroke is done by moving your arms and legs. Your arm is moved under the chest and then extended fully to the sides after touching in front of your body.
The butterfly stroke is managed by the motion of your arms and legs. It is much like the breast stroke, the only difference is after the stroke is accomplished your arms remain over the water not under.
