So I joined Lifetime Fitness yesterday. It's incredibly expensive, so much that I joined without my husband. I needed a place to workout where I'd have a lot of options, given that I'm 5 months pregnant now and have to be careful. My park district membership expired, and I had tired of their lack of equipment anyway.
So the new one has a nice big lap pool, so I figure swimming will be a really good exercise. I'm just wondering the best way to work up in distance. I did about 1/4 mile yesterday, with rests in between, and I was beat! I don't really do different strokes, I'm not that good, but I can get from A to B ok. Also wondering if I should use a kickboard, fins, etc.
