[quote=Anonymous]I took swimming lessons several decades ago as a child. I've decided to try swimming for exercise this summer, but am realizing that not only am I incredibly slow, my breast stroke probably resembles the doggy paddle more than anything at this point, and I prefer swimming on my back for some reason. I'm not really interested in taking lessons (I work full time), but just want to figure out how to make the most of about 20-30 minutes of laps. I'm a little overweight and usually do 30-40 minutes of fast walking outside or on the treadmill daily, but swimming is much more taxing I'm finding, especially the crawl. Any advice about the best approach to improving my swimming is appreciated.[/quote]
