Yes,
I'm in my 50's and have been struggling to learn to swim. I have had two private coaches and I spend a lot of time training.
It appears I can not relax causing breathing problems and tense muscles.
How is this fixed?? My wife says I'm afraid of the water even though I can train for an hour.
Any suggestions??
To me this is the number one way to relax in the water. Be sure to tell the lifeguard before doing this.
Simply allow yourself to rest on the bottom of the pool and relax.
I've been swimming (non-masters/competitive) my whole life and thought I was relaxed in the water. I wasn't. I should probably return to this exercise often. The is the quickest way from A to B, IMHO.
