    I swim like a fish ......... can easily put in 30 or more laps without any troubles.

    Had to complete a timed 800m swim to get my Divecon Cert

    Didn't slim me down any.

    My wife is trim as ..... she does two hours of Cross fit three times a week and two hours Box fit two times a week then plays Netball on a Saturday and runs 10kms a couple of mornings a week with her mate.

    Seems to work better than swimming.

    Just saying

    Cheers

    One of my mates has swum for an hour every day for years.
    He came to a half hour cross fit class, and nearly had to be carried to the car afterwards.
    Seems swimming training makes you a great swimmer, but doesn't help with fitness for much else.

    I gave up trying years ago.

    Did I mention she runs Marathons and competes in Triathlons during summer.

    What scares me is when she gets home from Box Fit and says to me "Stand here and I'll show you a new move we learned tonight".

    Cheers
