My own experience was in an Olympic pool at university, most of the time
spent in the deep end. I'm pleasantly surprised you've gotten this much result in
only four feet of depth. I don't have any battery of techniques for
increasing your rate of gain within a four-foot shallow; I guess we can both ask our
respective ImageStreaming faculties for suggestions on that. My first image is
a float board, held to one's back, my impression is that that is not literal,
what is being said by my imagery is to get as relaxed and calm as you can and
you will be finding ways to increase your rate of gain, which you would not
otherwise notice. The floatboard could as easily be the four-foot-deep bottom
you can push off of or stand up from when ready, but might help someone
floating in a deeper section so he can focus more entirely on a deep calm suspended
underwater state. ....win
