What Are the Six Different Types of Swimming Strokes? Swimming provides all-around, low-impact body conditioning as well as exciting competition.

Two other strokes -- elementary backstroke and sidestroke -- contribute to swimming longer distances, as different sets of muscles are used. The fastest stroke for most swimmers is the front crawl.
