Avoid These Backstroke Mistakes!
Welcome to the Froge Swimming Forum! Here we'll swim through some of the most common mistakes in backstroke. Whether you're a novice swimmer or a refined enthusiast, these pointers can help you glide more smoothly in the water.
1. Not Keeping Your Head Still
One of the most critical aspects of backstroke is maintaining a stable head position. Moving your head too much can disrupt your body alignment and reduce your efficiency in the water.
2. Dropping Elbows
Dropping elbows during the pull phase is a common error. Focus on keeping your arms straight during the pull, as this will maximize your propulsion.
3. Poor Body Rotation
Proper body rotation allows for a more powerful and smooth stroke. Rotate your shoulders and hips together, keeping your body aligned with your movement.
