Swimming Style & Tecniques

   Playing in the water can be incredibly fun for everyone. We can play for hours without feeling tired or bored. Most people only know the basic stroke but still they can have some fun with their family and friends. Do you know that swimming have many different style? There are four main strokes that you can learn. 

The first swimming stroke is front crawl. This technique is the basic technique for swimmer because it is pretty simple. Professional swimmers commonly use this style in competition. To apply this technique you must float on your belly in the water and propel yourself by rotating your arm in a windmill motion. Next, you need to kick your leg in a fluttering motion. However, this strokes requires proper breathing technique since the face remains in the water almost all the time.

Next, the backstroke. Backstroke is quite similar to front crawl except you must float on your back in the water. The arm moved in similar alternating windmill motion and the legs a kicked in a similarly fluttering motion. The backstroke technique have two basic technique. The first technique body should be rolled from one side to other. Therefore, the arms extend to their utmost reach to propel you catching the water. The second technique is the arms are moved equally force. So, you will not find yourself swimming towards one side only.

The third swimming strokes is breaststroke and this technique is difficult to learn. This technique requires a pattern where the body bobs upwards and downwards as you propel yourself forward in the water.The swimming strokes involves pulling your arm through the water as you bob up and breathe. Then you have to kicking your legs as you bob down and glide forward. The arm pulling and leg kicking are done alternatively.

The last swimming stroke is butterfly stroke. Similar to the breaststroke, the butterfly is also a difficult swimming technique, and not advocated for beginning learners, since it involves a fair amount of strength as well as precise timing. While performing this stroke, the legs should be moved together akin to the movements of a dolphin’s tail, the arms should also be moved together, pushing the water downwards and then backwards, while the torso moves forward in an undulating manner.

It is not possible for the beginning swimmers to learn all the techniques. Each of them will put yourself in a different position and will use different muscles. This can help you to swim in a lengthy distance and prevent your from exhausted by allowing you to rest in certain positions. Give yourself a try. Who knows you can be a professional swimmers one day. Let your dreams come true!

Lion?

Everyone knew life is not easy. Often, we face challenge and conflict. We have no other choice as life set us challenges to test our courage and strength. Facing up things and working through them will bring great satisfaction, values and inspiration in your life.

 Since my sister passed away 15 years ago, my mom became very protective towards me as I am the only child she has. She won't let me go out anywhere unless I'm going out with her or my dad. I also cannot ride a bicycle as it was the main reason my sister died. Yeah there are countless things I cannot do. My childhood freedom was snatched away from me. I lost the opportunity to explore the world. When I was in high school also, there were many things that I cannot do like other teenagers did. Sometimes, I wish I can have a little freedom to go out with my friends, having fun together.. laughing, gossiping and watching movies etc (you know.. as a teenager).  I have been kept in bubbles created by my parents for a long time. I felt so comfortable with my life without knowing the true meaning of "life". Many people said life is a jungle. Life is like sailing against the wind. Too dangerous to sail alone. And drowning is one of the biggest possibilities. But still.. I'm happy with my life until  I got an offered to enter a matriculation. 

The real world started..

Again.. Life is not easy. In matriculation my grades dropped. I'm too scared to faced a reality and of course I felt it is too early for me to enter this cruel world (even though I am 18).  My life become miserable and I want to give up. But one of my lecturer told me a story. About a lion. She said, lion is the king of an animal and I should live like a lion. Funny isn't it? Why a lion? I asked. 

"If you are going to live this life, live like a lion because living like a rabbit would change nothing". 

. A lion is called a 'king of beast' for a reason. Lions are symbols of courage and strength. Other than that, they are common symbol for royalty and stateliness. No animal has tried to kill a lion. Lion use intelligent hunting tactics to catch their prey as some of their prey are too big or faster than the lion itself. Therefore, there's no animal has been able to kill a lion unless the lion badly hurt while hunting the prey and they have opportunity to kill it. But there is only one or two cases. Besides that, lion is a special animal. It look strong, fierce and magnificent. There are many of animal that are bigger, stronger and faster than a lion, but for me lion is the greatest and most fearsome. A lion's roar can be heard five miles away. Cool right? Just imagine you're alone then you heard a lion's roar... haha you must be scared to death. Lion also a very social animal, they live in a group called pride. And they are working in a group. Together we stand, divided we fall. A lion like to sleep and relaxing around, it also able to sleep for 16 to 20 hours long. And I have read an article, it says that lion is a responsible animal. While the female lion goes to hunt, the male will defend their pride's territory. So why not we, human be responsible for our own life. The lion gets its done or dies trying.

So this is the reason I like lion until now. And of course my dream I want lion as my pet. But it is beyond my imagination. I can see them and adore them for far only. Someday, I hope I can be and live like a lion. Oh yeah, there is an easy way to become a lion....

If you grow a beard, you can look more like a lion!
