You can also do the Race Walk with Pointed Toes.  Extend the legs so that your knees are locked and your toes are pointed.  Keep your arms straight, with elbows locked and palms open and facing backward.  Keep the stride wide and smooth and fluid.  Keep your wrists loose, and let the water move your hands up and down in a waving motion.  If you move backward, use your hands to adjust your position.  Notice that the strides that call for wide, sweeping arm movements boost your heart rate dramatically.
