Tips to Know About the Strokes
In backstroke, when you see the flags, you need to know your stroke count. Miscounting is not a personality trait, it's a mistake.
You must know your flip turn before you start a 50-meter race. Discovering it mid-race is not a learning opportunity; it's a disaster.
You must know how to dive before you do the race. Trial and error on race day is a bold strategy that will not end well.
Know the order of the IM before you compete in it. Swimming the strokes in random order is creative, but it will not earn you a time,or a medal.
