Swimming

Sierrasmommy

Ok so I just moved into a house that has a pool in the backyard, goes from shallow to ten feet and diving board included. I love it!!! Its great fun and I can spend hours in there with my kid. My question is this tho, if Im not literally doing anything except like floating... can I list this as exercise???

check your pulse periodically. If it is elevated you can log it as a gentle swim. If your in the deep end you'd be treading water.

I just got back from holidays and swimming with my kids was a definite workout!
