jqpublic 1 Posted July 30, 2006 Try swimming up a slow moving river! while your trying to go forward the Water is pushing you back wards.You almost have to fight to go on.when you get tired move over to the slower moving Water.< /p> It works your whole body and its free, I try to swim every day or walk in the pool or do a few laps. good luck.

Jachut 487 Posted July 30, 2006 I can imagine that'd be hard, lol. I often use swim fins if I swim. Unfortunately swimming cant be an everyday occurence here, lol. When you're a woman and you pay good money for your hair colour and your spray tan and your french manicure, hmm, chlorinated pools are EVIL, lol. I also discovered the other day that boxing is a mega workout - I am sore in muscles that have never hurt before - even up the back of my head!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Road Queen 0 Posted July 30, 2006 John, one of the latest exercise crazes in the US is the small pools that create the Water forces to push you back and you need to swim against the Water. You can build a much smaller pool and get your exercise. Unfortunately, for the price, I will have to work internationally for a long time. Due to the creepy things in fresh water here, I won't try swimming upstream. There are pills that others take to get rid of the creeps but Im a chicken. But I am feeling exercise guilty so I'm gonna go take the neighbors dog for a walk. Celeste Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
