I haven't swam in quite a while (october), and I've started to notice that my stomach is kinda flabby now (even moreso since I've lost a bunch of weight this past year).
Just wondering if anyone has tips for me to get back into decent swim shape. I'm not planning on racing anymore, just trying to get to the pool a few times a week.
Also, what should I use after my swim so my hair doesn't get destroyed by the chlorine? That's the main reason why I stopped in october because my hair was always dead.:badday:

Get back into the pool and watch the calories... Usually, when you're training hard and long, it's easy to eat anything. Once you stop, well, let's just say all the flab isn't from loose muscle.
When I stopped training after college, I added 20 pounds in about 6 months. Took me that long to stop eating like I was doing 12,000 yards a day!
