Do you guys ever considered swimming for fitness?

It might be a nice change of pace for some, but bottom-line is the issue of cost if you don't have free access to an Olympic-sized pool 24/7.

I would love to use swimming for exercise but the only pool available to me is three miles from my house and since I don't drive, it's not really logical for me.

It's not worse than a gym membership.

Phelps is very fit; he swam mostly since a tweez.

Swimming is great overall fitness. Great for cardio, too.

Yet, he WON'T swim in deep water. WTF

He's scared of the 'deep'
Crazy or not? Thoughts??

Swimming is a good way to go for sure.

Pretty weird. By deep water do you mean the ocean or any deep pool/dam?

I read somewhere that Phelps' TDEE is something like 12000.

Don't know if that's true, but I really need to swim more.

3 miles? 3 Miles!? That's what... IIRC it's what's considered prime kick scooter distance, no? Or for rollerblades, particularly if the road to there is flat terrain. Is it?

I like when you're really going at it swimming laps and can start to feel yourself sweat. It is the strangest feeling. You feel the water sliding over you with a slicker viscosity than a few moments before. Once i get to that point i feel like i could swim the English channel. When the fact is i'm such an uncoordinated look like a cat trying to get of the tub thrashing spaz my body has literally overheated in the water

Jack Lalanne reportedly was a fan of swimming, and that guy was and remains a total absolute beast.

Swimming in a public pool can get you Ascariasis lumbricoides and resistant tuberculosis.
It will change your life forever.

Another excuse not to get /fit/.

There's always rivers, lakes and the sea. Alternatively build your own pool, grab a shovel and get digging.
