  • One of the most common problems we see when swimmers come to our Race Club swim camps: theraceclub.com... in swimming is holding the head too high. In Backstroke, this swimming technique is common because it increases the pulling power and the awareness of where a swimmer’s body position is in the lane, particularly outdoors in the bright sun however elevating the head in swimming backstroke increases frontal drag, slowing the swimmer down.
    Learn how to swim Backstroke the way we teach at the Race Club swim camps theraceclub.com... with proper swimming techniques demonstrated by World Champion Japanese Swimmer Junya Koga. These swim drills will certainly enhance your swim training program.

    Very interesting. Thank you Gary. I always have to consciously remember to keep the head back when doing backstroke. If I forget thinking about it it creeps forwards again. But I never thought of changing head position through different stages of the stroke. This effectively makes the head movement part of the stroke movement. Perhaps tackling it this way will help to eventually keep the head in the correct position.

      +0tispunkm3y3r exactly. Pick a point above you and keep the eyes focused on that while rotating the shoulder to the chin on each stroke.

    Ok, I'll follow your tips to the end of the pool! Thanks, Gary. This adds more support to the aphorism: "all four strokes are underwater."
    Cheers!

    Hi Gary, a swimming teacher yesterday said to touch my chest with the chin and raise my shoulders constantly during the stroke. I found it kind of strange. Do you think it's a correct posture when I do backstroke? Thank you:)

      Hi Lillo. You should not touch your chin to your chest while swimming backstroke. This will results in poor head and body position. Your head should either be in alignment with the spine or with a slight tilt forward.
