‘Here’s a skill everyone should practise’: Jacob Ward finds his float

Jacob – who is no stranger to personal training and workouts in the pool – swapped his hybrid training routine for a session in the sea survival pool alongside an RNLI lifeguard. His mission? To find his float. A skill everyone should practise – because, if you get into difficulty in the water, floating can save your life.

So, how did he get on? Watch the video to find out.

As Jacob discovered, we all float differently – by practising how you float and learning what it looks and feels like to you, you’ll be prepared if you need to use this skill in an emergency.
