New adult learner-start sinking after first breadth
Former Member
Hi all,
I just started learning how to swim recently as an adult. I couldn't move while kicking and after searching online I found this forum and it really helped :applaud: thank you so much. I can now move, very slowly. I followed the youtube series here www.youtube.com/watch. But now I face next issue:
In the last step, when I come up for air and come down I start sinking and stop moving, etc. Everything falls apart.
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
If the kicking is that much of a distraction, why not work on breathing while using a pull buoy?
I am also working on always breathing both sides, but after over 30 years of not doing it. It has taken a long time but I am almost to where it is second nature. One thing that really helped me was to develop a constant 6-beat kick (3 per stroke).
