Swimming

[wifehunter]

I hear it is the ultimate full body workout. I don't doubt it either, I was on the swim team in grade school. Never in my whole life, was I cut up like that. Also, women with a swimmers body are breathtaking.

I would like to switch over from walking to go back to swimming. Anyone have any advice on what pools to go to ie: gym pools vs school pools vs etc.? I really miss the water!

I would not recommend swimming in the state of sleep deprivation.

thanks Chris!!!

I'm thinking of signing up with planet fitness ($10mo). I'm not sure which cardio machine would be close to the effect of swimming. Any thoughts?

Why do you want a cardio machine to simulate swimming? Why not swim instead?

I imagine he's thinking of me nodding off underwater. It happens, I'll be sitting somewhere, then wake up from sleeping.
