Swimming Can Be Fun...

Today was a great busy to say the least for myself. I had headed to the gym and although I have never been much of one to be a swimmer I got in the pool and just did lapse. I enjoyed it so much feeling for the first time refreshed and the cardio went along with it.

So often I thought of doing swimming but never really considered it but I will be the first to say that doing lapse is not as easy as it seems. So I realized how much time had been lost within my cardio and how much there is to be gained.

Several were there fortunate for me there was still one empty row and I did just did my own thing and I never found it to be such a great workout without the gravity. So here I did have my camera but I did not have the time nor did I really wish to take any pictures at this time.

I just was to do...and within the cadence that is what my goal is and for every goal one does make regardless of where it goes at least one is challenging themselves in a good manner. I am not one to brag but I have never been so out of breath at the end of each side of the pool.  Yet it was very enjoyable after it all and for the rest of the day.

Cadence...maybe cadence is within ones step even when not on the ground but within the water.

  1. I swim 4 tims a week every week all rear round and have been doing it for 20 yrs. methodically-but swimming needs to be fun let your child out and play a little to and enjoy the feel of the water and how light we are and how soft it envelops ups.I just love it and as a non weight bearing excersise you just cannot beat it.Also for me I have friends in the water that I have had for 20 yrs.
