Swimming

they are basiaccly the requirements that you can swim for a long distance, for example if you swim in your indoor pool its going to be easier than swimming outside in the sea because of the factors so you have to train harder that you want to. these are the requirements of a long distance swimmer

It's the same as if you were swimming normally, swim 50m at a 45 degree angle to the current or if you are not a strong swimmer let the current take you out the swim 50m'sat a 90 degree angle to escape, never try to swim directly against a current or rips you will exhaust yourself and drown

It is breaststroke. Breaststroke uses the most energy per each stroke. Butterfly uses the most because it is the fastest.

The second fastest swimming stroke is Butterfly.

I am not medically trained but as a tracheotomy is a surgical procedure in which a cut or opening is made in the windpipe (trachea) into which the surgeon inserts a tube to allow air to get to the lungs, I would have thought that the risk of water entering this tube (and therefore the lungs) while swimming would be high. I would therefore think that swimming would not be encouraged while the tube was in place.

However once the tube is removed and the wound has healed I would have thought that it may be possible to swim again (on medical advice).

lol NO! i don't think so.......

It allows people to inhance the endurance and also helps to make you faster in a race because usually in intervals you increase the speed.

no.I dnt think so

Okay...i know that when i go to swim practice, i swim for a good hour and a half. i know that while im there(swimming constantly)i burn about 1200 calories. So, it doesnt matter how many laps you swim; its how long and how intense.

Your very welcome,

well if you want laps, you would have to swim 10-12 laps; there and back counting as one lap. So if you did that you would burn 500 calories, and if you were in a 25 meter pool you would have to swim about 20 laps; there and back counting as one.

Well, probably a minimum of 4' to 5' but can go to what ever depth you can attain. That min. depth is so that you do not touch the bottom of the pool if you are doing laps in a lap pool.

It can be any depth you want

he won the most gold medals in the 1972 Olympics in swimming (7)

200 lengths x 200 meters (40,000 meters) = 24.85 miles.

Sailfish can swim up to 70 miles per hour!!

There was a guy moveing his aarm's and he was [moveing and didnt know that at first.
Swimming wasnt discovered like other things. People have been doing it since the dawn of man. They would just go in a lake or stream...and jsut swim. Racing in swimming hadnt officially started until they started doing it in england.

It is used for emergencies when you run out of energy. I do this all of the time.

Many people have swam the English Channel.

On August 6, 1926, 19-year-old Gertrude Ederle became the first woman to swim the 21 miles across the English Channel in 14 hours and 31 minutes

The English Channel has been swum many times, the first being Matthew Webb in 1875. As of 1979, there have been 819 crossers that made it- and 17 that swam both ways without stopping. .

It could be all the salt in the pool affecting her vision. Maybe you should have her eyes checked out to make sure that everything is okay and ask the eye doctor if you could give her any eye drops after she goes swimming to help your daughter. Good luck and God Bless:) A: the water chemistry must be out of balance

Every body can swim to some extent and the human body floats in water, what prevents some people from actually staying afloat is fear which causes the body to freeze up - if a human relaxes in the water then everybody can swim

They do. I had to order one for my above ground pool - they are just not popular, that's why they are hard to find.

As a lifelong swimmer, I've always thought of running to equal approximately 1/4 the workout of swimming, distance and time wise. A decent swimmer can swim 100 yards in about a minute at a sprint and a decent runner can sprint about 400 yards in about a minute. One mile is 1600 meters which equals 64 lengths (technically, a length is one way and a lap is down and back although most people use lap to mean just one way also) in a 25 meter pool. 400 meters swimming is 16 lengths= 1/4 miles swam which is the approximate equivalent to 1 mile run.

Well you just answered it yourself... 25 metres so 82.5 feet it + would have been quicker for you to have worked it out with a calculator but anyway...

The longest distance swam in a swimming pool race is 1500metres 60 lengths in 25 metre pool or 30 in a 50 metre pool

it is 10k if you are swimming in open water, which is, in fact, swam in the olympics.

Fastskins (as in the Speedo FS Pro or FS II) are currently legal according to FINA regulations.

Full body suits and polyurethane suits such as the old LZR Racer and a bunch of others were banned in 2009 after the FINA World Championships in Rome, but the ban didn't take full effect until 2010.

Because public swimming pools are run as a business. In business, the owner and staff have a 'duty of care' to ensure the safety of everyone on the premises.

The life-guards are there to rescue anyone who gets into difficulties while using the facility.

Pufferfish are poor swimmers but can quickly ingest huge amounts of water to turn themselves into a sharply pointed ball several times their normal size to defend themselves against attackers and predators.
