Hey all,
Have to have a skin cancer removed (nothing serious--basal cell) tomorrow, and the doctor says no swimming for a week. He says running is okay, though, which I plan to do.
But I'm wondering if you have other tips on dryland stuff I can do in the meantime. The affected area is my arm, but I don't see that as a huge problem--though the doctor might restrict weight/strength training involving arm movements. Have to check w/ him about that.
What are your thoughts on this? I'm fortunate in that I enjoy running, so at least I won't be totally driven batty by the week lay-off.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Google Yoga for Swimmers. Good stuff.
+1! Race Club has some great videos. I found them a few weeks ago, and I have incorporated some of the exercises into my post-swim routine on deck.
