Sport is result-oriented, and the means is ignored - the body is made to
perform, regardless of any adverse biofeedback.
This is not healthy at all.
Running the marathon is meaningless if it damages your knees or you have a
heart attack.
When a person swims, how often do they pay attention to the quality of
their movement?
Are they interested in swimming with awareness,
of accomplishing a whole-body action?
Or are they counting lengths?

sport activities emphasise strength, endurance and speed. Development of
muscle control rather than skeletal balance takes precedence. Gaining speed
at the expense of mounting tension, is too often the goal.
