I will be swimming five days a week. I want to use the other two days for complementary non-swimming workouts. I am looking for suggestions. Being that I am out of shape the first thing that comes to mind is weight training. I could see some yoga in there as well.
Or...should I only use one day for a non-swimming workout and rest for one day?
I believe Yoga is the ultimate complement to swimming. They are remarkably similar.
I am not a yoga person and make no judgment about it merits; swimmers that I respect like yoga a lot. But don't these statements seems contradictory?
Here are two articles on yoga on the USMS website:
