Are you swimming for pleasure when you are traning?
I swim for relaxation.
I swim for fitness.
I swim to keep my blood pressure down.
I swim to lower my blood sugar.
Do I need to split my gut like so many of you are doing???
I swim because it makes me happy(without exercise, I get crabby!).
Because it keeps my pants fitting(was 180 in my 30's, upper 130's in my upper 40s!).
Cholestral was never bad, 175 8 years ago, 145 now.
Resting HR 50.
I don't compete much, and am still motivated to swim, but before I learned to swim I was motivated to do other forms of exercise. I just like to work-out, and if it paid money, would do it all the time...that said, gotta go work-out!
