Do you enjoy swimming?I really do. Swimming is the only sport that relaxes my the whole body. I enjoy swimming in the sea. There are many swimming styles.Do you have a favorite one?
Here are some swimming styles;
The crawl – swimming with your legs kicking and your arms moving over your head.
Backstroke – swimming on your back with your legs kicking.
Breast stroke – swimming by pushing your arms out to the sides.
he butterfly – swimming with both arms moving over your head at the same time.
Doggy paddle – swimming by making movements like a dog in the water.
Words and expressions that are connected to swimming are:
If you “do a lap”, you swim from one end of the pool to the other.
If someone is “drowning”, they are dying because they are under the water and
can't breathe, or they are in trouble because they keep going under the water.
If you “tread water”, you move your hands, arms and legs in the water so you can stay in one position.
