I am a former football player, power lifter, who has put on 150+ lbs since I graduated High School 10 years ago.
I had just joined 24 hour fitness to undo my 10 year repeat of the freshman 15. I did so because they have a pool and I'm hoping that can turn swimming into a hobby that will help me do so. Now, I've been doing some reading on the internet and from what I've been reading, it appears as if some put on body fat??????????
I need your thoughts por favor.
so if you want to compliment your swimming with running, try running in place in the pool. lots of track people do it when they have chinsplints.
...Or walk/run up and down in a middle-deep (chest high water) lane, which provides some low-impact resistance training, like walking/running upwind.
We had a gentleman at our community center who started out at nearly 400lbs, and used this method of supported walking (along with diet) every day to drop about 100 pounds in 6 months.
