The more you work and your muscles become fatigued the easier it makes you to sink when swimming.

Swimming requires you become calm and more relaxed and when you work on your breathing that makes your lungs become body balloons that increase your buoyancy.

In swimming, more efforts do not equate progress instead working on the little steps like overcoming the fear of water, doing the right kicks, breathing and pausing when you need to can be the game changer.
