Weights & Swimming

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. :joker: Thanks, Sarah

    Thanks for the reply Greg. You are very fast! I hope your minor rehab goes o.k. (and I'm sure it will and you will be back swimming tons of fly at practice again in no time!)....I don't think I'm quite ready to provide much of a challenge for you in that event (unless you were having a really really off day perhaps and I was having the race of my life...LOL!!) :rofl: :rofl: But I also like to race people for fun ...and there's nothing wrong with a friendly challenge....especially with someone who is in my agegroup now and swims my favorite event. I'm sure we will meet and race somewhere down the road anyway.....its practically unavoidable at this point. Newmastersswimmer
