It is very important to understand why an adult has not learned to swim. In many cases, the reason lies on the surface - the fear of drowning. It is he who does not allow an accomplished person to follow his movements, but pushes him to thoughts about depth. So what do you need to do to overcome it and finally learn to swim?
It is necessary
- - pool;
- - the sea;
- - a form for bathing.
Instructions
Step 1
Make sure for yourself that the water keeps you on the surface. Of course, you will have to spoil your hairstyle a little. Go into the water at chest level (maybe even a little less). Draw air into your lungs and dive headlong into the water. Then grab your bent legs with your hands and finally lift off the bottom! It will not go anywhere from you. You will feel yourself being pushed upward. Return then to the original position. Do this exercise until you are more confident.
Step 2
Realize that your feet are heavier than water. They tend to go down by definition. Here's what you need to do: go chest-deep into the water and turn to face the shore. Dive headlong into the water. Then, with a sharp movement, push off from where you are standing, directing your body up and forward. During this exercise, your legs and body should be straight, your arms should be at the seams, and you yourself should be relaxed to the maximum. You will soon notice that the body tends to be upright.
Step 3
Understand that how fast you move through the water depends on how your feet work. Also, learn to navigate the water without stress and fear. Repeat the previous exercise, but with the addition of footwork. Do not bang too hard on the surface of the water, as you will waste a lot of energy. Work your legs evenly. Try to get around as soon as possible with less energy. All of the above techniques will help you master swimming, while spending less time than in the regular swimming section.
Step 4
Practice constantly. Sign up for a short water pool. At first, it will be enough for you to practice these exercises in a pool of 25 meters. See how others swim and take your first steps in this business. Now that you are no longer haunted by the fear of drowning, just swim as often as possible!
