[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]It's much less about technique than size/strength when you're talking about the sprints in the summer[/quote] Disagree. Although size and strength can help, my tiny but technically adept swimmers routinely trounce big kids who have inferior technical swimming skills. Even in 25 m. [/quote] Don't usually see this at a young age although I do know of excellent swimmers who are small adults. At 8-12 you can have height differences of a foot or more and it really helps to be able to power through in the 25m. You don't need endurance or technique. I have seen swimmers splashing across the pool with what doesn't even look like rotary breathing. Yet they are getting top times.[/quote]
