Breaststroke is often referred to as a power stroke. That’s mostly because so much resistance is created as swimmers move through the water. While effective, building more power isn’t the fastest way to speed. Breaststrokers can go faster simply by reducing resistance. Big changes with a lot less effort. How can breaststrokers reduce resistance as they move through the water? Think horizontal alignment. The more swimmers can maintain alignment of the lower body when they breathe, the faster they go. The more they can minimize the time it takes to bring the legs up to kick, the faster they go. The more they can quickly they can get back in line after they breathe, the faster they go. Power matters. It’s not the only option. Less resistance equals more speed.

Get a Better Back YOUR DAILY FIT TIP from Lifescript Ever wonder where your back problems came from? You put undue stress on your lower back (lumbar spine) when you lean forward over your computer keyboards, sit hunched at your desk, slouch in the car, and bend at the waist to pick up your kids. For the sake of your back, and the body that it supports, get familiar with back-saving techniques. The 3 rules of lifting are: Keep objects close to your body. Move your feet instead of twisting at the waist (whether it’s to grab or set down objects). Keep your spine in a neutral position. Also, never reach for something that’s out of reach – use a step stool instead. And when you can, walk instead of drive, stand instead of sit, and always use good posture.
