Abstract
For beginning swimmers, although do not expect the application of rotation of the trunk in a later interaction of the same extent as for competitive swimmers, but it is important to assign the rotational elements from the beginning. We use them because even with the acquisition legs backstroke before training the arms.
Training arm implement, individually or in mutual interplay. From the didactic point of view there are no problems with breathing in total harmony as part of the face remains above the surface.
This paper presents training exercises with a focus on character and activities of the rotation of the upper extremities. As an extension exercise are also some modifications of the swimming feature for medical or rescue swimming.
