Swimming Basics - The FIRST THING you should learn as a new swimmer! The backstroke body position
This video is for absolute beginners to swimming or backstroke. It is the first thing Adam teaches new swimmers who have not learned to swim yet or have a fear of the water. Backstroke is an excellent first stroke to learn as it is easy to learn and keeps your face out of the water. You can take it at your own pace, and this video aims to teach you the body position (floating on your back) and how to practice for it.
Please watch our flutter kick video to progress your kick and aid your backstroke position. You can find it in our swimming basics playlist here:

Breathing to the side will help you swim for longer as it is more efficient and causes less strain on your body during your swimming workout. Adam also talks a...

It is also a great stroke for those with shoulder or lower limb injuries as it is a linear stroke without too much rotation of the joints. In this video, Adam runs through the basics of the breasts...

This is also great exercise and can be incorporated into your water workout to improve your core strength and leg muscles. The float acts as a resistance wall for the water, and by pushing yourself against it, you are training your leg muscles and conditioning your body to get into the habit of using the flut...

As a beginner at 72 these videos have been so helpful. Thanks
That’s great to hear, thank you so much!
Nice explanation, calm and easy to understand, thank you! Can you guys make a video about the dolphin kick? It's the one I'm having a hard time trying to do it 🤧
Thank you very much. Absolutely I will do a video for you in the near future. Give me a few weeks to get it recorded and out for you 👍
@@AaquaticsUK thanks, I'm sure you guys are going to help other people too 🙏🙏🙏
"In out together" - can you please elaborate on whether arms and legs coordinate simultaneously? I cannot coordinate properly; I seem to be using my arms and legs simultaneously, and of course, I still cannot breathe yet. I have been swimming for 5 weeks.
Sure, that is the trickiest part. I use those words to time the actions and get you moving. But when you drill down into the stroke you find that the legs snap and you use that snap the propel you forward as the arms pull to lift you out. So in more advanced technique the legs go before the arms by a very small amount. I will do a video for you soon to explain the exact timing - but if you need any exercises or help, get in touch with us by email and I can help you out!
very brilliantly explained, watched so many videos in different languages but this one i really got what i was looking for ❤
Thank you very much! 😁

Wow so cute baby❤
No one google in the water during the breathing?
So that is more of an advanced technique and yes can be useful in pool conditions. This is more of a broad explanation and something I teach beginners to be able to sight themselves in the pool. I will mention this advanced technique in our future advanced series 👍
Now I know how to focus on my on my legs... thanks coach
Happy to help!
Thanks sir for a nice explanation
You are welcome 👍
J'ai éssayée aujourd'hui , mais j' ai pas pu.
What was the problem?
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
My favorite is the breaststroke. Free style, there's just too much to think about. thank you for the helpful tips.
You are very welcome 😁
Nice drill
Nice
Τραβαει ο αγκωνας ή ο ωμος?
Technically both. You start with the shoulder initiating the pull. The elbow bends and helps get your hand moving and the shoulder brings the power. I will do a video on high elbow pull - but that will be part of our swimming advanced series. Thanks 👍
@AaquaticsUK Thank you my friend
Thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
❤❤❤❤❤
Very helpful thanks
You're welcome!
Nice explanation i am a beginner, i m struggling to breath second time how can i exhale? First breath has to be easy. I don't know please explain. I know i m holding my breath after taking my first breath
Thank you for the comment. Make sure you are fully exhaling underwater, and breathing in when you lift your head out of the water. Practice standing still, exhaling for three seconds underwater (blowing bubbles) and lift your head to breath. If you are still struggling let me know and I’ll make a video for you to explain how to practice 😁 good luck!!
@@AaquaticsUK Yes please make a video, I'm still struggling, I feel like after I exhale fully in the water, and I turn to the side, I don't have enough time to breathe 😢
I will do! Give us a couple of weeks and I’ll get one out for you. But in the meantime, make sure you are extending your arm full and pulling all the way back. That will give you enough time to fully inhale and also benefit your stroke by pulling back more water behind. Let me know how you get on and follow us for your video 👍
Thank you for your kind reply, I did standing practice for breathing that time I can do easily, at swimming freestyle timing is a big problem still I am struggling please please make an easy breathing video sir, it will be useful for me
My big problem is exhaling under water
Thank you very much for telling us about breathing technique.
You are welcome!
Love this teaching
Thank you very much!
When you learn how to make a video with decent audio, I might watch again.
Apologies. We had to have the fan running in the pool, we have tried our hardest to improve the audio in our newer videos! Thank you for the suggestion 👍
Good job I love it.i am a beginner and helps me with my breathing Thank you 🙏
👍👌
Thank you for explaining extensively.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent
Thank you!
The best instruction i've seen.very useful.thank you so much
Thank you very much!
thank you so much!
very informative.
I love the way you teach. You don’t just show how to do it but you explain what every bit of movement does, why we do it & its effect on the water. As a beginner I appreciate this. Please do more videos. Am having a hard time breathing on my side during freestyle. I also failed my treading with eggbeater kick test. Will take the class again and hope to pass with your coaching🙏 (mom from 🇨🇦)
Thank you very much for the kind words! We have a video coming out in this series that talks directly about how to breathe to the side in front crawl (freestyle). It should be out in a few weeks. Good luck with your eggbeater kick test! 😁😁
@@AaquaticsUK Can’t wait! Good luck will come if you do a video on treading with eggbeater kick😆🙏
Hi, I had total knee replacement on my both knees, I want to learn breast stroke. But because of total knee operation I can’t bend completely, to bring my legs near my bottom. I can bend only upto 90% . So do you think I can’t do breast stroke properly?
Best to follow your doctor’s advice. But from experience this won’t be a problem for you at all. Even with the limited range of motion, you will still be able to perform the leg action and it will help you to strengthen the associated muscles and tendons around the joint. I’d recommend trying it with the legs in isolation, perhaps buy yourself a pool noodle and pop it under your arms and try the leg action. I will film a video for you soon, to show different ways to practice all of these things in multiple ways. In the meantime best of luck, let us know how it goes! 👍 If you have any more questions, please feel free to reach out.
This video has helped me a lot thank you soo much
Some coaches teach high elbow pull (fingers facing the floor of the pool) engaging lats instead of the pull you are showing. Can you please clarify which is better ?
This can cause excess rotation in the shoulder and cause drag when returning the hands to the neutral position. Better to not fight the water and keep as efficient as possible, to ensure a sustainable stroke over hundreds (or thousands) of repetitions
Some coaches say you should not go wide with your arms...make it a small circle in front??
Yes as I mention, we don’t want to create too big a circle in front of you. A reasonable size, but definitely don’t let your arms go behind your shoulder line when pulling back! 👍
The pull he is showing is much better.
Excellent. Thank you
Great video. Thank you.
This is one of the clearest instructional backstroke kick tutorials I've come across. I'm still learning and this has been a big help. Thanks for posting.
Thank you very much for the great feedback! 😁
Thanks lovely lad.❤
I’ve tried this before many times but after couple seconds my head dove entirely in the water, what should I improve?
Try moving yourself through the water in a shallow depth. Get used to the feeling of the resistance of the water pushing you in the other direction. Use your sculling hands to move left, right, backwards and forwards. The practice your flutter kick lying on your back, get some power in there and get moving. Then finally put it all together treading water. Let me know how it goes and I can give you more tips if you need 👍👍
Excellent tutorial on breast stroke... made it look so simple...you've a great way of putting it across.. Could you also show how to use the hands and breathe in breast stroke
Thank you very much! And yes, absolutely those are the next two videos in the series. Breaststroke arms will be out on Saturday 👍
Excellent. Thanks
Fellow indian swimmer!
this is the best instruction i have seen . very basic and it works , I definitely subscribe your channel , thanks.
Thank you very much!
You are a good teacher, thank you😊
Thank you! 😃
@@AaquaticsUK If you could please be very kind to show us more ways to excercise the quads/lrgs or just enjoy the pool without knowing how to swim that would be awesome. Have a good day.😊
Absolutely, we’ll film a video and have it up for you soon. Thanks 😁
@@AaquaticsUK I apreciatte it. Have an awesome day!
My speed is not there
RUclips must’ve read my mind because I was just trying breaststroke yesterday and was thinking I was probably doing my legs wrong. I knew I needed to find a video to learn how to and this one was recommended to me. This was very helpful. Thank you!
I’m glad it helped, let me know if you have any questions 👍
They are not reading, they're listening
Exelent
Wow. He is good.
I love how she closes her eyes and holds her breath to tell me she wants to go NOW 😂😂
