"Normal" swimming is usually considered to be individual lap swimming or individual or relay competition and is one of the four racing strokes: Front crawl(or freestyle), butterfly, breastroke, or backstroke. Each of these can be perfected by preset standards. Another "normal" stroke may be elementary backstroke but it is a resting stroke and not in any competition.
Synchronized swimming consists of a team that works together to invent a routine based on the standard moves.
