What is the stroke order in individual medley?

There is no "stroke order" in an individual medley (IM) in swimming.

Here's why:

* The IM is a specific order of strokes: It always goes:

1. Butterfly

2. Backstroke

3. Breaststroke

4. Freestyle

* Each stroke has its own rules and technique: The IM isn't about choosing which stroke to do, but rather about executing each one correctly within the prescribed order.

Let me know if you have any other questions about swimming!
