All four strokes have different rules and techniques. Keeping your head the most of the time is a rule.
The swimmer should get in position when the referee says on your marks to get ready to take a dive when the whistle is blown. Some jargons include: Flutter kick which is basically a kick for a stroke, a heat which is a competition that precedes a semi-final, a glide is something a swimmer does when he/she is not moving much but just going with the flow. Swim in molasses, make waves, test the water, ride the wave, just add water reach for the wall are examples of cliches.

Movie review: Lovely 'Shape of Water' one of 2017's best 1.Rotten Tomatoes 2.Adam Graham 3.8/10 4.High points- Great directory, design, visual, cast,  5.low points- not much maybe just the poor performance of a gay man in the movie 6." And “The Shape of Water” is a marvelous movie, an adult fairy tale swimming in truths about racism, homophobia and the fear of the unknown. Del Toro conducts it like a symphony, an...
