Hey guys,
Just a curious question.
I'm in my university phys. ed. class, and yesterday we had a treading water competition. I couldn't last for more than eight minutes. Then my muscles gave in and I was out of breath. It was pathetic.
Is there a way for me to learn to tread water more efficiently?
I think my endurance is pretty good. I comfortably jog ten kilometres every day from my house to my school and again back.
But treading water is a nightmare for me. Everyone else makes it look so easy. This includes all the fat couch potatoes that I can run circles around outside of the pool...
Is there some key point I'm missing? I'm doing the scissor kick while making circley motions with my hands. The instructor said I'm not doing anything wrong....but there must be, cause I'm sinking. lol.
Thanks for the tips
