bitch I'm taking calls.
Easy to float on your back. Take a deep breath, hold it and lay on the water with your arms outstretched. I guess I'm biased as learning when you are young is much easier with just about everything. Used to wake up in cold sweats when I finally started learning to drive and took lessons when in was 20. Waited too long lol. Fine now though.
 
yeah, i got dat Caribbean swimming training... basically, an adult tells you what to do and they prop you up flat on the water while you kick your arms and legs... then they let you go and if you sink, they try again until you get it right. then eventually, they take you out in the deep water and let you go and you gotta make it to shore on your own.

it's super effective!
 
Man i've tried everything to learn how to tread water. No dice. I just end up frustrating myself cos i can't do it.

Your skipping the most important part of swimming, floating. Trying to tread water is like learning to run before you know how to walk. All things involving humans in water revolve around you learning your own natural buoyancy.

I don't have it. If i don't hold my breath, i sink like a stone. can't float on my back, front or any way else. I used to take lessons but to no avail.
 
I need to learn how to float vertically. Also, swim while using less power. I can swim just fine, but I always end up expending way more energy than is necessary.

Its in your head man. Your putting so much pressure on yourself I know you aren't relaxed when in the water. Yo literally need to let go of any thought of doing anything and let nature take its course. Do you think a log wants to float, no it just does.

Scissor kick your legs while making circles under the water with your arms moving from your chest outwards.

Stare at her until she feels uncomfortable, stops using free weights and stops going to the gym all together.



Honestly, I have no idea how to approach girls at the gym. I just stay on my tunnel vision shit. My gym has a co-ed sauna though, it's much easier talking to them in there sometimes. I caught a pyt eyein a nigga yesterday, I thought it was because of the weight, but saw her on a few occasions. I know I should have said something, because I actually had to use a machine near her shortly thereafter. And she squats.

Hitting up chicks at the gym is basically like hitting up chicks that are bartending. You want to do it. You want to say something but you have to be sly bout it cause its very easy to just look like a thirsty ass dude.

That's how it's always going to look. Best thing to do is to own it and go in with tact and no expectations.

That's how I know my game is introverted.

I suck at the regular walkupheymynameis stuff. I will orchestrate a blimp crash to get in good with the girl behind the register though.

True but its one of the cases where there isn't much around to work with at a bar or if she is just that fine at the gym then I go "alright why not"

I'm the walkupwhatupdoe type. I can easily start a convo with most chicks either at bars/party or not.

Maybe i'll give it a shot again. New place in Canada looks like it will have a pool, so perfect place to practice and not
die

The hood's favorite Gundam? Deathscythe Hell Custom.

A month after brawl came out, me and a friend were invited to a tournament, and half the tourney were either geeks or hood dudes. This dude I was talking to was telling me how he couldn't get used to Mario and had to switch up to Lucas, and then started trying to mack on some chick walking down the street almost immediately. I've never seen the switch flipped so quickly.

And the custom variants are the best thing about wing.

The custom variants make the original ones look silly.
