Crawl

Luca swimming crawl and back


This 4 year old is taking swim clases to learn the technique and all swim strokes.

What does the front crawl build in swimming?

I’m looking to build up my upperbody and tone a bit, so I’ve picked up swimming. I swam 1000 meters in 22 minutes today doing the front crawl. For someone who just started swimming two days ago, I thought it was decent (maybe I’m wrong- I know running times, not swimming). Anyway, I’m wondering if doing this will help to build my upper body, and, if so, what parts? Also, is there anything I should be doing to make it even better? Thanks.

Which muscles do I need to develop in order to improve my front crawl (swim stroke)?

Which exercises would you recommend? (Weight lifting? Calisthetics?)

Thanks!
