My body fat distribution basically makes swimming harder for me than most. Like, I can't even do that back float thing for more than 10 seconds because my upper half starts to sink. And I'm doing the breathing right, relaxed arms spread eagle, etc. Just, endurance runners body so the part of me that floats best throws off my ability to passively maintain equilibrium.

Fetal potion always floats.

You are less dense than water, but not by much. An adult human has 4-6 liters of air, which is vastly less dense than water, unless you flail like an idiot and fill those liters with water.
