Just starting again after 10 years

Well, my kids are now in swimming lessons and I knew I was in trouble the minute I stepped into the pool! I had to get a membership at a gym with a pool and I am back in the water...it feels like home:) Any suggestions for workouts? I am shocked at how slow I am, I have been working out still just not in the water. It looks like endurance is the biggest issue. My lung capacity is not what it used to be. Ah, I can't wait for my water babies to be trailing me in laps!

    Hey there and welcome. Yeah another newcomer LOL. I just started on the 7th of September back in the water after 22 years ( give or take a year). It is tough but wonderful. I joined a Masters program as there is no way I could figure out what to do each time I swam. I love having someone else telling me what to do, set up the program and then help me. As of today I swam 4 times this week :woot:. I have the sore muscles and tired body to prove it. But you know I am pretty proud of myself. I to am surprised at how slow I am swimming ( though I did better than I thought I would) I am hoping to continue with this, improve my swimming, my fitness lose a few pounds and meet some new friends. Congrats on getting back into the water. The first day back is the hardest Katie
