Help!
I'm trying to aquire the motivation to swim daily...well six days a week, one day of rest. I need to lose around 50 pounds by winter, but I still can't get myself in the pool.
I don't know why. I guess a few reasons could be:
(1) Social anxiety
(2) People seeing how fat I am
(3) Failing
Can someone help me gain motivation to get into the pool so I can improve my life?
Thanks!
Best,

Ask the surgeon about the affect of breaststroke on the knees. I was just at the surgeon the other day and there was something on the wall about it but it's not my stroke so...
Motivation is very personal and specific to the individual. You refrained from discussing the root cause of your anxiety but whatever it is you'll have to overcome it in order to make progress.
You will lose fat, but not much weight, because muscle weighs more than fat and you will be building muscle as you lose the fat. Ask your trainer about it.
