The elementary backstroke is great for exercise IMO. Hard work with your arms above your shoulders not especially good for rotator cuff action. Elementary backstroke good for that, also ease of breathing.

Some of the vids show arms above head, in a horizontal way, but I go perpindicular from the body on down. Don't want to piss off my shoulders.
