Swimmers experience forces such as drag, buoyancy, and propulsion. Drag is the resistance of water against the swimmer's movement, while buoyancy helps to keep the swimmer afloat. Propulsion is the force generated by the swimmer's movements to propel themselves through the water.

There is a law of physics that states, "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction."

The swimmer moves water backwards and hence water moves him forward.
