Crawl / Technology
The "crawl" when they controlled for the fastest and most economists in the swimming discipline. At first glance, the technology to be quite simple, but it places high demands on coordination and body position. In most cases, like the self-learned style swimming the "Water Ball Crawl" at the head of the free breathing and good visibility immer oberhalb der Wasseroberfläche gehalten wird. Im Sinn des Sportschwimmens ein schlechter Stil. Zudem ist die Belastung für Nackenmuskulatur und Halswirbelsäule ausgesprochen hoch, was zu vermeiden währe. Tendenziell haben größere Mensche die besseren Voraussetzungen um im "Crawlen" richtig schnell zu werden.
AUSGANGSLAGE
Der Körper befindet sich in gestreckter & horizontaler in der Gleitphase, möglichst parallel zur Wasseroberfläche – der eine Arm ist geradlinig in Verlängerung der Achsel, leicht unter dem Wasserspiegel gesteckt, wobei der gegenüberliegende Arm abgewinkelt etwa auf Brusthöhe ist. Arm und Beinschlag be carried out alternating.
Who wants to swim long distances, which elects the two kick each swimming cycle (= each a right / left arm pull / kick) and is as flat as possible in the water. Fast swimmers are easily employed in a body in the water so that the six-leg shock can be implemented most effectively.
armstroke
The arm movement is the actual drive in the "crawl". By alternating (mutual) arm movement results in a continuous drive, wherein the upper body comes into roles.
feed phase / With elbows appeared largely relaxed ahead of the arm with his fingertips, about 2 palms in front of the head and an extension of the shoulder, into the water. The opposite arm is positioned in the pull phase at shoulder height . Arm and shoulder move forward under water and it sinks slightly. In this phase of the water barrel should you leave yourself enough time, as this can be no good this drive.
drive phase / Now the wrist is angled so that the hand can train to enter the water. Here, the elbows slightly bebeugt so that the forearm can also work against the water resistance. The elbow flexion learns about chest height on the peak (Sprinter move on something else). In the subsequent compression phase dissolves the diffraction up again, so that the hand making along the hip and thigh pressure against the water. The manual describes
during the entire drive an (almost) straight path. The once-vaunted S-shape of the arm movement is obsolete.
swing / With a bent elbow, the arm swings as possible without any effort from waist height above the water level on the head until he returned about two hand's breadth in front of the head immersed in water.
kick
recreational swimmers need the kick, especially for the horizontal and vertical stabilization of the body, whereas in Hoch-/Leistungsbereich is the kick used mostly for the drive. Long-distance swimmers and triathletes often train without, respectively. with a little kick to save power. You will acquire thereby the best possible position in the water.
the kick we run each other in an up & down movement, making sure is that he comes from the hip.
from the toes to just in the extended position falls below the water surface at the first downward movement of the thigh. Still relax the lower leg bends at the knee up, almost as a counter-movement. Here, the foot falls to just below the surface.
follows In reply, the active extension of the leg extensor muscles so that the lower leg and foot to the thigh after fast (kick motion). Even before the foot has reached the lowest point of the thigh begins with the upward movement. The foot is the process by the water pressure turned slightly inward. The foot has reached the lowest point, follow the lower leg and foot to the thigh. - The cycle begins again.
The kick should not inject in general, as this only represents an energy loss. The feet should come at the beginning of the cycle only to lie a few inches below the water surface.
two / six kick?
The choice depends primarily on the chosen distance. A lot of leg work has the advantage that can swim fast, but consumes (as most muscle in the body also the biggest energy hogs) is also a lot of energy. Everyone should consider himself what is his most Basten.
The difference is crawling from 6 to 2-that during the 2-stroke rate increases of the arms and strengthens the roles in the body axis.
BREATHING
is the breath, if you erlickt's first, not that hard. The easiest way is if it is followed from the corner of my eye with the head of the pulling arm. At the end of the pull phase of the head to turn this page. If the On from the water, turns the body (the head slightly increased) are some snaps around the longitudinal axis and it can air. be filled at the end of the swing phase, the lungs with air and the mouth is closed. When dipping the fingers into the water turns the body back a little.
Even when the head rotates with the body rotation, the head should be detached from the fuselage. Thus, the head of a turn faster than the rotation of the longitudinal axis.
The exhale is under water. Who is practiced should try to exhale the air until the last moment. Air in the body helps the body to float better.
of two / three breathing?
Most begin with the 2's, since air can be drawn quickly and with the learning of kick and arm pull too much would also pay attention to even the 3 Series. It has however shown that the 3, with regard to the technology and even stress the muscles, brings with it significant advantages. In addition, open water can easily be converted to the 2's, for poor law have been in light waves from the right, the wave motion catching up with the flow.
TIPS
To get straight to the point, it must not be looked in swimming direction and the water level must not necessarily lie at the hairline / brow. Beginners look at the bottom of the pool and lift my head over the learning curve slightly forward, so that looked wrong yet again. Yes, even the occasional spill of a wave over the head is allowed. The water situation, the A & O is in swimming. Do not worry, it is virtually impossible that against a wall, or another person is swimming against a large object. Before the head is always a hand, therefore nothing can happen much.
Who wants to learn the freestyle swimming, which was to try out here described Arm & breathing technique while standing in front of a mirror. Very slowly and einptägen feel good. MOST COMMON ERRORS
armstroke
The coordination of arm movement on the left side to right side usually works sometime soon. With the "right" rotation "it gets more difficult. The rotation depends on the swimming style. Only, the rotation of a tree trunk lying in the water immediately. Whether more or less (with or without breathing), the rotation was only in swimming direction, so take place in the longitudinal axis.
The stretching of the arm is not along (side) of the body out. It is often targeted in the body axis, sometimes even "assault". It is true that the parallel lines, is therefore in the extension of the arm.
is often depressed in the pull phase, the water in the direction of reason. Unfortunately, this is the water situation is deteriorating and it will consume unnecessary power. Fter the elbows bend creates immersion early as remedial.
kick
All too often the kick too strong / only used for flattening the body to the surface and to compensate for false arm techniques. Each swimmer should now and then / beginners frequent exercise crawling without kicking. Quickly noticed the float disadvantageous as the water situation is and how he begins swimming in the direction to roll. For beginners, it is advisable to have observed this from a friend.
breathing
bring out the lifting of the head to the air inevitably lead to poor water situation. The head rotates during breath with only the rotation of the longitudinal axis.
