I decided to learn to swim front crawl fairly recently and one of the drills that is often done during the class is either backstroke or kicking while on the back.
I have fairly lean legs and they seem to always sink. While the instructor keep telling me to raise them closer to the surface they don’t give practical steps.
There must be a lot of good swimmers on this board: does anyone have more practical steps on what someone can do to raise his legs while swimming whether it’s a matter of pushing your chest down or belly up?
Does not help that I can’t film myself and have no good feeling about whether my legs are close to the surface.
