How do olympic swimmers train?
they swim and they swim a lot
Why is the middle lane better for swimming?
middle lane it can be anything 4 5 6 then 5 would be the middle laneAnswerWhile training, it is a good idea to put fastest swimmers in a lane at on outside lane, and have the slowest in the outside lane at the opposite side of the pool (i.e. in a 6 lane pool, lane 1 is fast and lane 6 is slow, or visa versa (depends on the coach)). If your team includes very inexperienced swimmers, they may get both outside lanes so that they may have the comfort of the wall to grab onto. Also, most more experienced swimmers would rather not swim near the wall for space reasons and the choppiness of waves bouncing off the wall. However, in a swim meet, the fastest swimmer is always in the middle lane, lanes 3 or 4 if it is 6 lane pool, lanes 4 or 5 if it is an 8 lane pool, then slightly slower swimmers on either side of the fastest seeded swimmer as to create a v formation during the meet (a little more exciting to watch in a meet).I am a competative swimmer, and i only know several different types of training, but in meets i know that is fairly standard. Other training techniques by other people may stray from the training lane assignments i told above, but that is usually how my coaches have had swimming set up.the reason is so that all the swimmers can see the fastest person. If the fastest were to be in an outside lane, they could only be seen by the person next to them.

Why are there yellow lanes in the middle of an Olympic swimming pool?
Both lanes 4 and 5 are highlighted by using yellow lane ropes. The swimmers who compete in these lanes have either the fastest entry times or in the case of the final, the fastest qualifiying times. It is an advantage to swim in these lanes as often they are subject to less water turbulance than others. Spectators also can identify swimmers more easily by the use of the yellow lane markings.

What is the best place to swim?
I would have to say the best place you could swim in would be a swimming pool with lane-lines in it so then you could do laps. I would also recommend a Olympic sized pool. Those 2 are the best places to swim in because then you wouldn't have to swim against the current and it would probably be better for all beginner/ intermediate swimmers.
What are the qualifications to be a swimmer in the Olympics?
for swimming there is a meet called Olympic trials to reach that point there are tie standards you must reach. From that point the swimmers swim once in prelims where the top 16 move on to semi finals once the swimmers swim here the Field narrows even more down to 8 swimmers finally the swimmers swim one last race in the finals the top two swimmers in that race go to the Olympics
