I swam competitively from the time I was 7yrs old the whole way through college. After I graduated, I decided to take a few years off and try to do some serious weight lifting. I did moderate cardio work during this couple of year stretch - I don't really consider my self to be out of shape, just out of "swimming shape" :(
Anyways, I'm getting ready to start swimming again. I've been doing a lot of running to try to get a little closer to what I feel would be in shape for practicing.
Any thoughts on how to "ease" back into serious workouts. The fitness center that I belong to has a masters program, but I would be nowhere near ready to participate.
Thanks,

By the way, Scott. I see you are in Pittsburgh. Join one of the YMCA's that have a master program. You would certainly be welcome at the Sewickley YMCA. There are several YMCA's in the area with masters teams. Check out www.amymsa.org. It is the eastern PA YMCA masters organization
