Instead of the treadmill and lifting weights, Melanie and I decided to get our exercise by swimming today. Ouch, am I sore. I'd rather lift 30 reps of weights with my mother beside me going on about how we should start having kids. I'm not the greatest swimmer. I'm just ahead of anchors on the list of things that float. After a few laps my arms started to burn and my legs decided they'd join in on the pain. All I can say is after swimming on and off (rest, good!) for around 20 minutes, you get a great cardio and muscle workout without the stress on your joints.
I just hope I don't drown in the shallow end from exhaustion.
