Swimming

There are only 4 'real' strokes

-freestyle

-backstroke

-butterfly

-breaststroke

These are the only 4 swam at the olympics.

There are also stroke called 'survival stokes'. These include:

-survival backstroke

-survival breaststroke

-side stroke

These strokes are usually swam in open waters, like rivers, dams, and ocean.

But they aren't really stokes, just actions to keep your head above the water.

Depends on the water source, what type of pool it is, and what type of smell. Chances are once you get the chemicals in there and let it sit for a couple of days, the water will be fine. If it's particularly foul (like fecal matter), or stays smelly after the chemicals have been in it for a few days, you'd probably want to drain it and check that there's nothing wrong with the water source. Depending on what kind of smell it is, it could also just be the 'new pool scent' from the liner.

I think anything under 30 seconds is pretty good.

No, swimmers ear can not switch ears. When you are in the water for a while you will notice your fingers get wrinkly. This is what happens in your ear after some time. When this happens it allows germs to get into your skin and causes an infection. So if one ear is completely fine, it will not get swimmers ear unless you allow water to be in your ear for some time.

Guys can wear jockstraps under their swimwear. There are also cups that are made for non-contact sports like swimming. But again it is completely up to the person.

Wearing either a regular jock or swimmer jocks are best under their swimwear. As you age teens who need the support of your family jewels will notice the need support to hide erections.

Lots of pool pumps have some air going through them without causing any problems as long as it doesn't have the effect of causing the pump to lose its prime its ok. Air runing through through the pump indicates that the seals in the valves the water runs trough may be worn or just in need of a little o ring sealant or you may have a fine leak in one of the pipes or joints leading to the pump.

Well, I'm still working on my backstroke myself, but a friend of mine gave me a REALLY good tip that's improved my speed by alot. When you reach the flags (that is, if there are any) start kicking your legs extremely fast. Once you're ready to, roll over onto your stomach and do your flip turn. Make sure you always try aiming closer to the floor after finishing your flip turn so you're gliding through the water. When you rise back up from the water, move your arms as FAST AS YOU CAN. This should help you when turning, but when you're actually swimming, roll your shoulders so they're moving in a circular motion. Also make sure you're reaching as far back as you can when using your arms. LAST THING. I don't do this, but apparently it helps. Try... bouncing in the water? I've tried doing it and it doesn't really help, but you could try it. Well, I hope I answered your question. If you already knew all of this though... then. Sorry.

It depends on the type of system, smaller heaters like an El Nino or Ez heat you may see only 10 degrees, with a Bigger name brand pool heater like a Fafco or Vortex system you will see up to 20 Degrees above ambient air temperature. So in places like Florida you can use them to basically swim all year round.

they are all different. depends.

Usually 164ft length by 82ft width. 6 ft deep

it depends on if its an oficial size track. if its an official olympic sized track it will be 100 laps. 4 laps equals 1 mile so 4 times 25 would be 100 laps

Yes The result is more toned muscles throughout your body when you swim. Also weight loss yes. Regular swimming in laps with proper diet by cutting down the carbs. Will give you amazing results in few months.

You have to swim 20 laps of the pool in a 500 yard race. One lap is considered one length of the pool, or 25 yards. In the 500, you are allowed a counter. The counter sits at the far end of the pool and shows you how many laps you have swum. The counter will show up to the number 17, then on the 19th lap, he or she will show a red sign.

82x25 = 2050meters

1 meter = 0.000621371192 miles So The Answer is

1.27381 miles or 1 mile and 481.907 yards

if you have dyed your hair to a dark colour then you should be able to really anytime after but if its blonde or bleach it is possible to turn green so its best to leave it for about a week to be safe . if your hair ever does go green then put ketchup on it straight after as it takes it out. x hope this helped x

Chlorine is the active chemical element that has been specially formulated for pool sanitation.

Either 25 yards or 25 meters. There are even some pools that are 50 meters. But usually the pools are 25 yards.

The definition of an Olympic size swimming pool is 10 lanes each 2.5 meters wide, however to prevent the outside lanes being disadvantaged by having to compete with the waves bouncing off the sides of the pool only the middle 8 lanes are ever used.

for a 10,000 metre track event, its about 25 laps of a 400m track.

The department of water and land conservation provides grant money

in the form of a sharing type grant. 55/45. Go to www.nps.gov (National Park Service). There isn't a lot of money available there but anything will help. I am currently searching as well. Our little town in Missouri needs something for the kids.

The grant would also help pay for things like paving walking trails and an

amphitheater. The grant money available this year is the same amount as last year. There have been a few years that there was no money in the fund but there has been some years that there was much more available than there is right now. Hope this helps.

24 laps in a pool. 500m is 20 laps in a pool, and so if you divide 500m by 20, you would get 25. 25 would have to multiply by 24 to get 600m, therefore it takes you 24 laps to complete 600m.

Water removes heat from your body 7 times faster than air. So when you get outta the pool, you are wet, that water becomes the temperature of the air and while on your skin takes some heat from your body making you feel cold.

A lap is defined as swiming up and back, or a total of 50 yards in a 25 yard pool.

Most good swimmers can swim one lap in uder 30 seconds.

When swimming 50 yards 32 times in a row most good swimmers would average under 50 seconds a lap. Meaning an avage good swimmer can swim 32 laps in about 26 minutes.

yes yes if it is not cold or windy perfect day to go to the pool

It depends on what sport you're better in.

I personally think swimming is alot harder it takes more skill and talent to become good in in it is also quite diffucult to do it competitvely. Football jst about anyone can do.
