I have difficulties b/c I'm built like a gorilla lol. At my weight and bodyfat percentage, it's basically like trying to put a square peg in a round hole. People do underestimate the value of being bouyant.

I remember trying to swim a few months ago. I had to use two kickboards and my gf and I were sharing a lane. She was swimming behind me and I noticed that I was kicking my ass off but not moving. Then I heard her start laughing and choking on water, the poor girl damn near drowned. Apparently I was kicking, but my feet were are the bottom so I was not going anywhere.
