Hi everyone
I'll be moving to the FGC soon and would like to at some point join the LMSC...
Only problem is I'm seriously out of shape. A new mom and recovering from a broken ankle (indoor soccer) I would like to get somewhat fit before I hit the pool. What are some routines or exercises yall would recommend to help get me ready?
(At some point I would like to compete, so it's just not a leisurely thing)
Thanks.

Anyway, if you are not able to find a team or have strange work hours, then find a good lap swimming program. I'm fortunate, that some of the lap swimmers have half-decent freestyles where I swim. And I like to be challenge. I was keeping up in butterfly against a 50 something doing freestyle. Try to workout in a pool that has a pace clock. I worked out in two different pools and one has a pace clock, so I'm able to do some interval training. Also, if you have to do it on your own, them try to read books or swim magazine, join masters just to get hold of the magazine.
