JULY..Swimming Laps, Water Aerobics, Running in the Water...

LCINFLA · 06-30-2012, 09:23 AM

How about joining us and let us know how you are doing with exercise in the pool..water aerobics, walking or running in the pool...or laps...

Let's be accountable for hours/minutes we accumulate in the month of July..

My goal is 2 miles a week in our city pool..which I just joined.

FYI. = 25 yard pool...36 laps make a mile (or 72 single laps)...

HOW ABOUT IT???
It makes it more fun if we get alot of people to join us...

LCINFLA · 07-01-2012, 12:18 PM

Becky... glad to hear from you,,, isn't water aerobics fun? I may go to the pool with my DH later. I did a 4 miles walk today, but it was very HOT..

I'm joining in. When I first started this WOE I was going almost every day to the pool. Now I'm lucky if I go once per week. I am going to re-commit to going in July.

becky7474 · 07-02-2012, 08:25 AM

Did 30 minutes of pool walking today.

LCINFLA · 07-03-2012, 07:59 AM

Lynn

cfine · 07-03-2012, 05:09 PM

Dang it! Another day gone by and I haven't hit the pool again. I'm not giving up though. I will check in again tomorrow.

Hello, I'm new, I teach Arthritis Water Exercise Classes at the Western Family YMCA and the Newark Sr. Center in DE. I teach 10 X classes a week, a total of 10 hrs a week, usually, plus I teach Swimming Lessons 3 nights a week and a couple of afternoons. I may be picking up another adult class. Just to let you know, this WORKS! I used to be over 430 lbs and I have lost over 225! Remember 1/2 hour of water walking is worth 2 on land!!

Here is a video they made about me at the Y, if you are interested! ;-)

Jane Segel... I see it is your 1st post, and you picked our thread...

Thanks for the video.. I am sure the people will watch it...Thanks for inspiring us...

I find it so much easier here in Florida to be in the water, even though I am still walking outside and doing aerobics...

becky7474 · 07-05-2012, 02:23 PM

Yesterday I pool walked for 30 minutes and today a 55 minute aerobics tape.

MagieDen · 07-05-2012, 05:51 PM

Back from my vacation to Wisconsin. I didn't have a chance to do laps or do a water aerobics while on vacation but I got in a 30 minute non stop laps in the gym pool today and am happy about that.

Tina.T · 07-05-2012, 06:40 PM

I want to join!! We have our own pool and I love taking my 2 daughters out to swim...while we are swimming I try to do some vigorous laps, I have found that just swimming leisurely for an hour burns 420 calories

capricapers · 07-05-2012, 06:42 PM

Did my DWR today - and some water ballet type barre exercises.

becky7474 · 07-06-2012, 07:59 AM

30 minutes of pool walking.

Tina.T · 07-06-2012, 09:12 PM

Did 15 laps in my 36ft long pool.

LCINFLA · 07-07-2012, 04:13 AM

FYI.. I googled..
Pool exercises...went to one that said Pool Exercises.. YouTube...
(GREAT VIDEOS)

I got alot of ideas of ways to exercise in the pool when I can't get a lane at the city pool...

Hope you all have a good Saturday..

Lynn
Pool Exercise is fun and COOL

LCINFLA · 07-07-2012, 12:26 PM

1 mile swimming laps today in the city pool.

Lynn

3 miles done in July

MagieDen · 07-07-2012, 05:10 PM

Can't wait to get back in the water on Tuesday, it better hurry up and get here.

capricapers · 07-10-2012, 01:37 PM

Bought some cords that attach to the ankles so you can swim your heart out and not do laps. Like an endless pool. They gave my kind of a claustrophopic feeling so I think I'll try them on my Speedo Deep Water Running Belt instead... still a good concept.

LCINFLA · 07-10-2012, 01:59 PM

1 mile today in the city pool... 4 miles for July

Capricapers... the ankle cords sound good...

We bought them at Pinch - a - Penney. $32 ish dollars. I've seen that kind of thing that goes around the waist and then hooks to a pole and you swim your lil heart out...

MagieDen · 07-10-2012, 02:27 PM

1 hour water aerobics today!
