Improve your swimming technique
At 11 a.m. every day, my former boss would walk through the office and say "I'm going swimming." He'd be back in the office two hours later. Every day. You could set your watch by him. Rain, snow, or sunshine he always chose swimming as his main exercise. It's no wonder, either. Swimming works nearly every muscle group, the water creates natural resistance but also cushions your joints, and you can modify your workout to match your fitness level. It's a particularly good exercise choice for people with limitations (such as obesity, arthritis, and back pain) for other cardio exercises.You can get the most out of swimming by improving your technique. For example, you don't want to hold your neck too high in the front crawl, hunch your shoulders in the breaststroke, or fail to properly rotate your hips during the backstroke.
