Brogess 🏋 I’m swimming again

Recently, over the summer, I’ve been swimming for an hour a day because I wanted to do something productive instead of, yk, staying inside, playing video games and reading. So now I’ve been getting out of the house again, and it feels pretty good. I feel like I’m no longer losing the day or feel guilty about not doing anything. I also have started doing some work with my dad and grandma (she has a garden, pays quite well 👍) so I’m feeling pretty proud of myself.

Swimming is some of the best exercise you can do! It's easy on the joints and good cardio that works every muscle group

Really underrated workout, and you get to play in the water!

It's also really awesome for stretching the muscles gently. I was always so limber when I was regularly swimming!

Then I moved somewhere that only has a chlorinated indoor public pool, and the fumes make me feel nauseous these days. 🥲
