I went for a swim before work this morning. The pool is half a mile walk from my flat and I try to swim for 30 minutes and I like to go three times a week. Looking at the new year timetable, I am aiming to go Monday, Wednesday and Saturday mornings, from 08:00 until 08:30. I then walk to work which is another half a mile.
I enjoy swimming because it doesn't make me all hot and sweaty, but I still get a really good full body workout. Did you know that swimming uses all the muscles in the body? Also exercising in water makes your body work harder and that means 30 minutes in a pool is worth 45 minutes on land.
I find swimming to be relaxing and it helps me maintain my mental health getting regular exercise. I sleep better when I swim in the morning as well and I feel more energised for the rest of the day.
