How do you float on top of the water on your back?

Question

im a good swimmer but this is the oly thing i cant do...and give good detail for best answer

Answer 1

lay on ur back breath in lower your head until ur forehead is in the water, raise ur stomach part high until u feel like u r not laying flat kinda like u have slanted a bit and thats all to  it, flip ur leg sharp and fast to move.

watever u do, do not curve ur body so that ur tummy part is low raise it

Answer 2

some people don't have to hold the breath  i don't and I'm 260pounds of muscle.  others no mater what they just sink like a stone.    but  yes just relaxing will allow you to float or sink. put out your arms and legs and there ya go

It is very relaxing if you do it for a while.  :)

Answer 3

Lay on your back, relax all of your muscles, take a deep breath in and hold it, the air in your luns gives you bouyancy.

Answer 4

just relax, get on your back, and don't do any thing(practice in shallow water first)
