Hi there. It's been a while since I lifted weights... (college) - and I was wondering...
Since my time is limited and I can't make multiple trips to the rec during the day, would it be smarter for me to lift before I swim or after?
What are your thoughts on a personal trainer to help get started?
I realized that I need to start lifting because of how I swam today at my meet. I've been doing some great work at practice - but I think I need a little bit of assistance.

Thanks,

I should have mentioned that part too. I usually give myself a light ten minute warmup before doing any weights. Then do weights. Then a longer cardio afterwards (30-60 minutes).
So, maybe I should jump on the elliptical trainer (with the moving bars to get my arms warmed up) before I start lifting?
Good point about lifting first... the arms won't be as tired.
