Question

in need to know how to swim!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Take Lessons!

Answer 2

float n your back or get a life vest

Answer 3

You have to relax and trust you are going to float or you won't. If you are not relaxed then you will not float very well or at all.

Aside from fat on your body, which almost everyone has enough of to float in salt water. Floating in a pool is harder.

Answer 4

Take lessons dude

Answer 5

fat is less dense than water ergo float

Answer 6

Your body always floats, whether your 400 pound or 120 pounds your body will always float, because of our body structure, maybe this information will be al ittle reassuring too you honey!

Answer 7

Answer 8

Just relax in the water you really don't have to do anything. I did not learn how to swim until I was 11 yrs old. My grandma took me to swimming lessons. It is really not that hard to swim at all. If you think you are going to sink you will. Be one with the water. You should take some swimming lessons, they really help :0) Good Luck

Answer 9

well take swimming lessons, then! don't worry about age or anything. you can always get private lessons. or ask a friend or a parent to help you.

Answer 10

deep and shallow water are the same as long as you cant touch the floor

Answer 11

STEP1Take a nice deep breath and calmly lie on your back in the water.

Step2Tilt your head all the way back so your ears are just under the surface of the water.

Step3Spread your arms out to your sides like an airplane.

Step4Do a light flutter kick with your legs.

Step5Relax.

Step6Breathe normally.

The key to floating is to seriously RELAX!

Answer 12

I, personally, don't know how you float.  I am on the swim team and I have taken tons of lessons.  I can sort of float.  I think it just takes practice.  I am getting better.  You know what your parents did in the water and held your back up?  Well, practice like that.  Have someone hold you up.  It helps and don't be ashamed of asking.  It is all for your better being.

Answer 13

Just like you do in shallow water.

Answer 14

First of all, I would NOT recommend venturing out into deep water if you can't swim. That's just asking for trouble.

Stick to shallower areas, where you can touch the bottom with your head above water.

Think about it: if you're trying to impress someone with your skills, and end up half-drowning or needing to be rescued, it's gonna look a lot worse than just saying, "Sorry, I can't swim!"

Be careful, hope this helps!

Answer 18

tread water or just take lessons.

Answer 19

Answer 20

take swimming lessons

Answer 21

fill your lungs with lots of air and relax

Answer 22

Float on your back by leaning backward, letting your legs relax beneath you.  "Guide" yourself by slowly paddling with your arms.  If your arms tire, use your legs for awhile.  You can float like this for a long time.

Answer 23

LESSONS! ♥

Answer 24

kick ur feet and move ur hands slowly

Answer 25

Take lessons or die! One of the tricks is to breath in deep to make you more buoyant. But unless you learn how to control your movement and breathing you will be in trouble so get some lessons.
