the lifeguard encouraged me to water aerobics yesterday

"I can get you a noodle if you would like to try the water aerobics class...they wouldn't mind a latecomer.", said the lifeguard...I almost collapsed at the proposition, and gently responded, "ME in WATER AEROBICS! Are you NUTS?!"
As I swam past the class--several of them were actually just floating there...literally dangling in the water. Then others were totally busting their butts, really working it to "What's love got to do it?" by Tina Turner. It was great.
Immediately I thought of all of you--especailly the opposing viewpoints of Shaky and Laineybug...(the very question might have been the final breaking point for Shaky at his pool, whereas Laineybug, on a special kind of day, might have considered the invitation).
Nonetheless...it was hysterically funny to me--and only all of you would appreciate why.
Have a great swim!!

Janis, I saw a water aerobics class like that at the Toronto Y a few years ago. They actually made the water foam. Those people were really working, unlike the water exercise classes in my home pool. I remember asking what they were doing and how amazed I was when I was told that it was a water aerobics class. I believe the idea of water aerobics was thought up by Jane Katz, a masters swimmer, who had a real workout in mind - a workout where your heart rate got into the aerobic training zone.
