A ( the biggest mistake they made is over-rolling when they turned to breathe, not only turning their chin but also their whole body, their hips their ankles, and almost rolling on the back to breathe)
D ( another mistake that beginning swimmers typically made is holding their breaths....many who hold their breath too much have an incomplete exhalation and carbon dioxide building up which quickly adds to fatigue and energy lost, so make sure that you are always exhaling)
