    Well i think the calories you burn will depend on speed, weight, and duration. Swimming is one of the best sports to burn calories as it is a "Whole Body" excercise. You use more mucsles at once swimming than any other sport.

    To increase swimming speed, Good technique helps a swimmer minimize drag caused by the action of swimming. It also maximizes the amount of force that the swimmer transfers from their body to the water to propel themselves forward. Bad technique has the opposite effect, increasing drag and decreasing efficiency. Practice is the best solution.
