The next drill to learn to swim the backstroke is a variation of the simple Slide and Glide swimming drill. However now you execute three complete arm cycles before observing a pause for a few kicks. This allows you to practice whole-stroke real backstroke in short bursts.
Focus especially on the body roll from side to side to increase the swimming stroke’s power.
Finally, once you have mastered all the backstroke drills, try to swim backstroke for a few lengths. Normally this shouldn’t be too difficult if you have followed our progression of backstroke swimming drills.
Congratulations! You are now a backstroke swimmer! Enjoy your new swimming abilities! And why not try to tackle another swimming stroke?
