Since some time I felt that my condition was not what it should be. And I already decided that when time would allow it I would work on that.
From someone who knows a lot about things like this I got the warning to take it easy and don’t overrun myself. Swimming was according him a very good way to start to build up your condition. Which was very nice because I always loved to swim. So I would start for some month with swimming 2 times per week. One time here in Haaksbergen and one time during the working week in Amsterdam.
So this morning I went for the first time. And Marion went along with me (she will do this when she can and wants to). It was fun and it felt good. Although afterwards muscles hurted that I even didn’t know I had :).
But as said, it felt good to have the feeling that I really used my body. Nice were the breaks during the swimming in whirlpool. Relaxed chatting and enjoying the warm water.
So after around an hour of swimming we went to the sauna Apart that a sauna is also very enjoyable, it is very good for your body.
We finished it all with a herb-bath… very relaxing. And it seems to be very good for your skin (which may be more important to Marion then it is to me :P).
Funny note: Marion wanted to see how her “rescue swimming” was. Well, she is still very good in it… only I complained that I didn’t get that famous “Kiss of Life”…. ;)
It was fun, Rob. And what is better then having fun and enjoying ourselves while it is also good for you too?
When I can make it, I will come along with you when you go swimming!
