I've been trying to learn swimming. You can research the hell out of swimming techniques and apply it. No matter how good you are you can still get better.

Plus there is something about water that makes the stress go away( for me atleast).

I can't swim though.
I couldn't either until 3 months ago( being from the 3rd world and all that), then I discovered total immersion swimming. It was my life long goal to learn to swim I am glad I finally got around to it.

Now I can swim laps( with pauses after each length).

It's worth learning. It's one thing to not like it; it's quite another to be simply unable.

Learn to float. Then learn to use your limbs to move around without a ground to push against.

Perfect! Learning to swim is never boring.

Bonus, a swimmer's physique is often rated the most attractive type. Eh? ;)
