I am new to swimming...I basically am only able to swim free 50yds at a time without getting "winded". I use a kickboard for about 100yds and then start up with free again. I try to keep it up for 45 minutes to an hour. Am I kicking too much w/ the board? Would it be better to alternate free with back versus free with kickboard?
Basically I need to figure out how to get to more continuous swimming.
Any ideas? Suggestions? Thanks!

Oliver Sacks has written of neurologically impaired people able to move fluently by musicking themselves along. It's all good.
The original recommendation for humming to unclench jaw and relax breathing apparatus sounds right on, and may ease the whole experience.

I will definitely practice with the humming more...I don't know if my problem is neurological, but I do overanalyze so I may very well be thinking about it too much to relax. :shakeshead:
