I don't think even after that much time you would have developed enough mass muscle to break the holds of gravity.

Soaring over a 6'6" adult may be a stretch for just about anyone, but there is one secret I learned to improving vertical leap: practice jumping in a swimming pool.  The resistance helps improve your vertical leap distance.  Add that to general weight training, and be sure to allow enough time for recovery -- up to 72 hours between strenuous weight-bearing workouts, and you will add some inches to your vertical by the end of the year.

be sure that you are athletic and are able to tumble. If you can do these things then try out!

Not advisable get a teacher. Or at least someone to be there so u dont drown.\n\nif u absolutely wont get someone to watch do it in a guarded pool, stay in shallow end. then practice floating and the front stroke.

My life was once boring.  Nothing to do.  Actually there was always something to do, I was just lazy.  Well, when I turned 18, I went out on my first sky diving thrill.  Is this a considered a thrill?  Well, I did that, 30,000 ft above the air, people so small, you feel the blood runing throug your body very fast!  \n\nI then went out for bungee jumping from a bridge in Southern California's mountains.  That was also a good one..I thought I would hit the ground, but the rope itself pulled me back up before I did.  Is this a thrill?\n\nThen I thought of a water sport...white water rafting in Denver, CO.  Now that was a mega thrill, torrent waters, sharp rocks, drowning and crashing possibilities, but were able to manage good.  \n\nLast but not least...hang glyding...now if you're not afraid of heights and love flying...you should definitly try that.  It's awesome.  At first you're runing on land to pick up speed, then there's nothing below you, at least when you're already 10,000 ft high or more.  flying.  \n\nWould I recommend all this?  Hell yeah!

Great exercise and therapy:\n\n Swimming can be very demanding for the beginner. Exercise at a comfortable pace and periodically check your heart rate to make sure you're staying in your training range. It is recommended that beginners swim 12-20 minutes, building endurance with time. As you progress, you'll be able to swim farther and faster at each workout, and the efficiency of your strokes will improve. Intermediate swimmers should swim 20-30 minutes and advanced swimmers 30-60 minutes. The freestyle, or crawl, is the most efficient and strenuous stroke. A 150 pound person burns about 8.5 calories, a minute, swimming freestyle. \n\n If you get tired, switch to a less strenuous stroke, such as the sidestroke or breaststroke, or swim a few laps with a kickboard. Swimming in sets - 4 laps freestyle, 4 laps breaststroke, 4 laps backstroke, for example - will make your workout more interesting and will exercise more muscles\n\nSimple Water Exercises:\n\n Kick with a kickboard or holding on to the side of the pool to tone legs, back and stomach. \n\n Leg lifts also condition legs, back and stomach. \n\n Holding on to the side of the pool, lift each leg 10 times in front of you, behind you and to each side. \n\n Running in the water increases your heart rate just as swimming does. Many people who can't run on land can run in the water without a problem. Because of the water's resistance, the impact on your body is far less. In chest-high water, begin by running with your hands on your head, and as you become more fit, paddle with your arms. You can alternate running with skipping, hopping, or even dancing in the water.\n\n Bobbing up and down in the water improves breathing and muscle tone. \n\n Treading in the water improves arm and leg strength. Whatever your level of ability, remember to cool down afterwards with water or stretching exercises

Swim under the water.  That builds up more endurance.  Go side to side in the pool.  You can probably go one way without taking a breath.  You definitely need goggles for this. Underwater is often the fastest way because there is less turbulence.

I've been a certified diver for over 30 years.  Swimming on the surface is not the same as swimming underwater.  I was not a strong swimmer when I got certified, but I was able to pass the swim test.  I think it's more important that you feel comfortable in the water than you be able to swim long distances.  \n\nIf it was me, I would go to a local pool and practice swimming laps.  You'll probably only be able to do a few at first, but you should be able to increase that soon.  Practice good form, regular breathing, etc.  If you're not sure what good form is, watch the other people swimming laps.  Notice how they turn their head to breathe rather than lifting it up out of the water, how many strokes they take before they breathe, which side they turn their head to, etc.  You can also sign up for an adult swim class, and get some regular training and practice.\n\nStay with it - scuba is great.  It's a good way to meet a bunch of outgoing, friendly people, and it can be a lot of fun to go somewhere different and exotic and go diving.

you are naturally bouyant, fill your lungs with air as much as you can, and you will float... just dont panic when a wave hits your face

All I would say.  You are so posed to be exactly alike in your moves.  What every body part the other swimmer has you must have that too.  lol\nIt helps if you can float also.

<<..yo guy... it took me like 20 mins to register for this yahoo thing, so i hope you read this...>>\n\nI am a national level swimmer and it just happens that my best event is long distance butterfly…The way to build up your stamina is to take the following steps\n\n1)Perfect your technique, (swimming fly with bad technique is one of the hardest and most tiring things to do) \n2)Don’t start with too much at a time. Start of with swimming about 20 –30% fly and the rest freestyle of backstroke… gradually start doing more and more butterfly \nI don’t know what level of swimming you are at but here is a set you may want to do :\n\n(15 X 100 meters)\n25 meters sprint full stoke \n50 meters butterfly drill (try one arm butterfly)\n25 meters sprint full stroke\n\n<<later you can increase the distance of fly>>
