Stew Smith demonstrates the CSS - the fast and efficient swim stroke of the Navy SEALs. This YouTube video is a few minutes of the CSS DVD Terry Laughlin and I created demonstrating the different ways to swim a modified side stroke or AKA the Combat Swimmer Stroke (CSS)
StewSmith is a former Navy SEAL and current fitness writer/trainer for military, special ops, law enforcement, and fire fighter fitness. Check out http://StewSmith.com for more info on training for any Special Ops Training.
Combat Swimmer Stroke - breakdown. Kick off the wall, double arm pull, CSS stroke cycle of Pull, breathe, kick, glide.
Top arm pull is a freestyle arm pull.
Bottom arm is more similar to a breast stroke scull (not a full stroke to your side) BREATHE during the bottom arm pull.
Turn to breathe - do not lift your head up to breathe.
Kick can either be a scissor kick or a breast stroke kick BUT when swimming with fins you need to learn scissor / flutterkicks.
Kick hard / pull hard = glide fast.

You don't have to be a competitive swimmer to ace Spec Ops Training, you just need to be good and comfortable in the water.
