Swimming & Diving

Many years ago they had a basic water rescue class where you had to learn to float with your clothing on (fully clothed). Is there still classes anywhere that still does something like this? I've found basic water rescue classes, but they no longer do the clothed swim function. What about water aerobics, do folks go clothed to those classes?

Well, we are doing swim for six weeks, and I have about 5 weeks left. Well, I changed in the nude today, and I liked it. I'm not gay, but I just feel right. Anyways, since it is only 5 weeks, I want to extend how long I am naked. I was thinking this:

1. Take Off Swimsuit and Boxers (Become Naked)
2. Dry All of My Body
3. Put Wet Items in Bag
4. Put on Deodorant
5. Sit Down on Bench
6. Put on Socks or Put on Clothes
7. Put on Clothes or Nothing

Is this too much? Will this be more obvious, putting me in the position of doing more than just changing? And is the socks thing too much? Thanks. =)

P.S. I'm a 9th grade boy.

I am kind of torn..because i really want to grow those 2-5 inches from swimming. but i live in Pennsylvania and we only get 3-4 good months to swim if we are lucky..what should i do? And another problem the closest indoor pool from my town is a good hour to an hour and a half away! Oh and is it even possible for me to grow the 2-5 inces from swimming if i am done growing???

For a girl's high school team. We have already been threatened to be expelled if our quotes have even close to a double meaning. Granted such quotes as "We're better when we're wetter" "just stroke it" or "fast girls=good times" are not really the best. Anyone have any ideas? Must not be stupid, or childish. Thanks!

Hi,

I'm an amateur scuba diver with limited experience.

What is the best thing to do if one loses their weight belt while down below a certain height?

I would assume that you would become very bouyant, and so be in serious risk of getting Decompression Illness (DSI) due to a quick ascent.

Is there a routine for when this happens? Is fighting the ascent useful at all?

I've had my weight belt come loose before at surface, but I'm very scared of this happening deep below. Hasn't happened yet but it could.

I'm afraid that seawater might have adverse effect to the contact lenses in my eyes. I could wear goggles but can't totally prevent seawater from reaching my eyes with contact lenses.

Naturally I know you'd be much more careful but is there anything special you wear or have with you?

My mom thinks that I'm qualified to learn, but I can't convince my dad.

You see, he was taught probably in the late 70's/early 80's, so they didn't have nearly the fancy equipment they have now. He had to do all of the math in his head. I think he's worried I won't keep an eye on how deep I am, how quick I'm ascending, and other essentials of diving safety.

Thing is, I will, especially if the only thing keeping me alive is strapped to my back!

I'm a strong swimmer (he taught me how when I was about 2), I'm getting A's in an honors math class, (useful if something did blink out) and I know how to use fins from going snorkeling.

I want more freedom than about 10 feet down!

Oh, and I'm 15 years old, pretty much fully developed physically. (I know that's a big part of not letting kids dive!) Minimum age in Mississippi is 12, I believe.

alright, well on monday i have a unit in my P.E. class in swimming. it's 4 weeks long. the problem is, i can swim a little, but i dont think i can swim 50yards and tread water. i have a horrible fear or swimming and depths of 6ft+. its required by my school to take swimming or i have to take it sophomore year. my best friend oscar says that if i'm having trouble in the water he'll help me out, but thats not enough to reassure me that i wont drown or pass out.

i'm so terrified, how do i get over my fear because i HAVE to take the swim stuff but i really dont want to. HELP!

Ok, so here's the thing: we have a swimming pool in my backyard, and this coming summer I am probably going to host and end-of-the-year-swim-party. Here's the problem: I have no boobs. Almost all of the other girls at my school have boobs, if not HUGE boobs, so what am I supposed to do? I don't want to walk outside in one of my bikinis with no chest to fill it.
