Yes I do - you can't swim in cold water without fat. Try it.

I hate freestyle wrote:Front Crawl (Aka "Freestyle") gets you from point A to point B the fastest with the least amount of actual "work". It's good if you're racing or on a time constraint, or enjoy it. It can be a good interval stroke or a tri stroke.
If you want full body workout and coordination and to not get too bored and be able to swim long distance or in different water conditions you should learn every stroke you can.. breast stroke, what the first person who swam the English channel used, this stroke is a beauty once you get it down, it's the last stroke athletes learn since it is so hard to do the dolphin kick near the end, backstroke is good for full recovery, side stroke is good for swimming with waves or for using tired muscles since you use a nonchalant scissor kick, navy seal side/front crawl stroke combo conserves most energy they found, butterfly maybe but I have found no practical use for it, breast stroke works pecs enough, swimming while holding your breath can be great.
The main thing about swimming properly is covering the most distance with the least amount of effort, there should be a glide period in all strokes, the more powerful and efficient your stroke the more distance you can cover without getting tired
this is why swimming is such a joke of a sport. Just swim, there shouldn't be 5 different disciplines for the same distance. Imagine if running had races for left foot first starters and right foot first starters. Thats what its like.
or maybe it's just a skill you don't have and are jealous of
