Why do we celebrate face-in swimming? ๐ฅณ
Because swimming with the head lifted high above the water (otherwise known as doggy paddling ๐ถ) is tiring and inefficient! When the head comes up, the hips and legs tend to drop. When the hips and legs drop, the body creates more resistance. More resistance means more effort just to get to the air ๐ฎโ๐จ For children, that extra effort can quickly lead to fatigue which compromises their safety.
Learning to swim with the face in the water promotes a more streamlined body position and helps children move farther while using less energy ๐ค๐ง
Thatโs not just better swimmingโฆitโs safer, smarter swimming. ๐ค
