I went to the gym today and after I lifted weights for an hour, I went for a swim for about 40 minutes. I must say, after all that my body was absolutely exhausted! I'm looking to start a routine where I both lift weights and swim every other day.
Now my questions are:
IS swimming after a gym session a good idea?
IS swimming before a gym session a better?
IS swimming at all a good idea if I'm trying to lose weight??
Any help for this amateur swimmer would be greatly appreciated!

I have never been a big fan of weight training before a swim session. I typically view strength training as an extension of dryland work. If I am doing a double on a particular day I will swim in the morning and then weight train in the afternoon.
