Workout Addictions

Started swimming again after quite a few years off. I have found I have developed a strong addiction to my pull bouy which I affectionately call my "diaper"...... (as well as wearing my paddles). I do most of my main sets with them both on. I don't seem to have any shoulder problems using the paddles so often ...... which surprises me. I'm wondering if this is a healthy addiction. Then again, I am old and need my diaper to stay a float easier. John Smith

  • I think it's hard to get your heart-rate up or even out of breath while using a buoy and paddles. a few 200s on 2:45lcm or 400m on 6:00 or 800m on 11:30 will change your perception on that! :D like say a set of 7x400m on 7:00, but all have to be under 5:00...2mins is plenty of rest!
