      @@prakashmirashi It depends. Everyone learns with a different pace. According to my experience you can learn it within hour if you are doing it the right way. But it’s normal if it takes longer then an hour. If you have to deal with anxiety and phobia, it can take anywhere between 5-15 hours

    I swim and water walk 5 days a week. I always end my water exercise with 10 minutes of motionless back floating. The weightlessness helps my muscles fully relax so I don't get stiff or sore. I highly recommend motionless back floating as part of the "cool down" phase of any water exercise.

      The technique for ending the float is identical to crunches (abs exercise). Learn to TUCK YOUR KNEES UNDER YOUR STOMACH rather then pushing your heels to your but when ending the float.
      Learn to end the float while holding the wall or some floatation devices, it should help

      You shouldn't lift your head up. That makes you lose balance, if you're not ready for a quick swift pivot. You'll need to use your hands several times to gradually rotate your body into the vertical. As long as you keep resting your head back, you'll remain supported and should remain balanced and stable.

    I’m a master when it comes to back floating. Been doing it for a long time. I practice it every time I go the pool. But what gets me is I see other swimmers not incorporating any back float or any back stroke into their swimming regimen.

    • @danswimnyc
      @danswimnyc  11 місяців тому +1

      Most likely you are experiencing it because your muscles are too tight.
      Make sure you relax your shoulders and release the tension of your neck

      Yes, unfortunately bigger muscles= less buoyancy. In your case you would have to keep on moving.

    Why is this a useful skill? In open water, any ripple will wash over your face. In a pool, it is not really useful. Perhaps just one more thing for generalized water experise. Floating face down ("survival swimming" or "drown proofing") as a survival skill is useful. I can float face up, hanging vertically, if I work hard to keep my lungs full of air.

    • @danswimnyc
      @danswimnyc  Рік тому +10

      Thank you for your opinion. It's quite interesting, however, I see it differently.
      It is a useful skill because you have unlimited access to air while floating on your back. You can let your legs and arms rest while you are floating on your back and breathing.
      Any ripple or tide(sent by someone else swimming right next to you) can wash your face even in a swimming pool if you are doing it wrong.
      The more skills you possess in the water the more confidence you have overall.

      @@danswimnyc I taught myself side-stroke at Boy Scout Camp when I was about 8 so I could get out of the non-swimmer section of the lake. But I didn't learn to swim reasonably well until I was about 35, when I used Counsilman's Competitive Swimming Manual and watched good swimmers (no UA-cam then) for lots of hours. SCUBA certification, then a Red Cross WSI certification and taught swimming for several years. The best I've ever done is one mile in 32 minutes. Certainly not competitive, but not couch potato either. I'm now 81 and swim a half mile several times a week. Occasionally I have a swimming team coach watch so I can stop bad habits I've picked up. Can't do fly.
