How to Swim: Freestyle
The document provides instructions for freestyle swimming technique. It discusses maintaining proper head position by looking forward at a 45 degree angle to reduce resistance. It also describes extending the arm forward fully and rolling the shoulder during the reach, and rotating the body from side to side with each stroke. When pulling, the hand should cup the water at a 45 degree angle and pull with an S-shape motion by extending the arm back and raising the elbow during recovery. Kicking should come from the hip with straight legs and pointed toes to reduce drag, and breathing should involve turning the head 90 degrees without lifting it from the water.
Swimming
The document provides a history of swimming from ancient times to the present. It discusses how swimming was practiced in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome for military training, recreation, and competition. It then outlines the founding of the International Swimming Federation (FINA) in 1908 and its growth to include 194 member nations today. Rules and strokes for swimming competitions are also described. Brief biographies are given for several Bulgarian swimmers.
Swimming
Swimming provides an excellent full-body cardiovascular workout that tones the arms, legs, and core muscles. It can be enjoyed by people of all fitness levels and is a useful skill for life. There are four main competitive swimming strokes - breaststroke, backstroke, butterfly, and freestyle crawl - as well as other activities that can be done in the water. Swimming is also a low-impact activity that can be continued throughout one's life and offers health benefits like improved cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle mass.
How to Swim: Backstroke
Lie on your back in the water with legs straight and relaxed, feet pointed away, and one arm at your side and one arm stretched above your head. For arm motion, enter the water with your pinky first and rotate shoulders to drive the arm forward while keeping elbows locked underwater and driving the hand towards the hip. Use a reverse freestyle kick with straight relaxed legs and pointed feet to maximize propulsion.
Swimming
Swimming is a competitive sport involving four major strokes - freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly - performed in pools or open water. It has a long history dating back thousands of years and is one of the most popular Olympic sports. Competitive swimming involves various individual and relay events across distances. Proper technique, including skills like kicking, floating, breathing, and stroke coordination are fundamentals for swimmers. Swimming provides health benefits like cardiovascular fitness but also carries injury risks like shoulder and knee problems if not done correctly.
Butterfly stroke
The butterfly stroke evolved from the breaststroke in the 1930s when swimmers began bringing their arms forward over the water instead of at their sides. It was refined throughout the 1930s and officially recognized as its own stroke at the 1952 Olympics. Key elements of the butterfly include a Y-shaped arm pull followed by straight back movement, synchronized up-and-down leg kicks on the sides, and breathing every other stroke or using a two-up-one-down breathing pattern. Proper body movement in a wave-like fashion controlled by the core is important for efficiency.
How to Swim: Butterfly
This document provides instructions for how to perform the butterfly stroke in swimming. It describes the body position which is parallel to the water with arms wider than shoulders and head facing down. The stroke involves a dolphin-like 'S' shape body flexion. It also details the simultaneous double-arm pull under water with bent elbows, the recovery motion with thumbs up, and a core-engaged single-leg butterfly kick performed twice per stroke cycle.

Water Aerobics Group
Water aerobics originated in 1968 and was created by Dr. Kenneth Cooper as an aerobic exercise that can be done in water. It provides low-impact cardio and strength training while being gentle on joints. Benefits include improved cardiovascular health, muscle tone and endurance, flexibility, and calorie burning. A typical water aerobics class involves a 10 minute warm up, 30-40 minutes of exercises done in the water using equipment like noodles, dumbbells, and kickboards, and a cool down period. Equipment costs vary depending on location but classes can often be done in pools, lakes, or oceans for low to no cost.
Why we walk the way we do (ug)
This document summarizes a lecture about gait analysis and the attributes of normal walking. It states that most of the lecture material can be found on the professor's blog, and directs viewers to videos on the blog that cover the same topics as the lecture. The lecture then explains the five key attributes of walking: energy conservation, clearance in swing, appropriate step length, support of bodyweight, and smooth transitions. It uses gait graphs and diagrams to illustrate each attribute and discusses the implications for clinical practice.

English swimming
Swimming is defined as moving through water using fins, tails, or limbs. The document outlines some of the benefits of swimming such as weight loss, whole body workout, and improved shape. It also discusses swimming rules like wearing proper attire and safety for non-swimmers. Backstroke is defined as a stroke performed on one's back using alternating overarm strokes and a flutter kick. The effects of backstroke include having a powerful start and glide and restrictions on underwater arm movements. Overall, swimming provides postural, cardiovascular, and circulatory benefits.

Long Jump Web2011
The long jump has been part of athletics competitions since ancient times. In modern competitions, the long jump requires athletes to take an approach run and jump as far as possible from a take-off board into a sand pit. Over time, athletes have developed more advanced techniques like the hitch-kick method to maximize their jumping distance. Speed and power from the approach run determine take-off and largely dictate an athlete's jumping distance, with in-air movements serving to control rotation and optimize landing position. Effective long jumping requires a focus on sprinting ability, strength training, and refining one's approach technique.

There are two options for freestyle turns in swimming - the open turn and the flip turn. The flip turn involves a three-quarter summersault in the water without rotation to touch the wall feet first before pushing off into a streamlined position on the stomach. Treading water effectively utilizes kicks like scissor, frog, and egg beater without streamlining. Aerobic swimming is long distance at a comfortable pace while anaerobic swimming is short, fast sprints with minimal breathing and increased power from kicks and strokes.
