    Swimming

    Ok guys im getting a home with a swimming pool. I was wondering how good is swimming for u to stay in shape? I know wlad swimms instead of running because steward say's its alot better then running because of his joints. I heard its a great overall workout what u guys think?

    Swimming will bust your balls cardiovascularly, especially if you haven't swam before. Much better workout than running in my opinion.

    That being said, if you're getting a house with a pool, chances are you're getting one of those small peanut-shaped ones, in which case you'll just be giving your balls a flap-about.

        wlad does still run afaik. but pool work is praised by many i have talked to.

        it will likely help with fluidity i imagine.

        i have a thing about dirty-ass pools, so i dont swim. but i make uo for that with swimming body dragon forms. yeah! :P

            swimming is still good though, do it to mix up your fitness and combine it with boxing training and running, but dont let it fully replace running

              if your pool aint big enough for swimming laps u can just sit there and tread water for as long as u can thats pretty rough workout in its self
