Totally late on the cold thread, but I'm surprised nmm didn't mention just simply swimming to prevent/wipe a head cold. Hour or so of laps and the ol' sinus gets completely drained. Might seem gross but that's what chlorine is for! Anyway, I had an old German coach who swore by it. Said Kleenex was the worst thing you could do for a cold. Blow your nose in the sink or shower --or use a neti pot.

The pool was a blistering 74 degrees this morning. Apparently there was an unscheduled water exchange over night. Maintenance was trying to pump in warm water. For those of you that know what it's like to swim through pockets of cold and warm water...........you can understand my frustration......for those of you that don't.......it goes something a little like this..............it's hot.....it's cold.....it's hot.....it's cold......it's hot....it's cold........yep menopause. :lol:

Anyway.........

25 yard pool

400 swim
4x100 IM (25kick/50drill/25swim) :10 RI
4x50@ :45 (desc. 1-4)

3x [3x100 IM reverse @ 1:45 (desc. 1-3) / 200 IM strong] 1:00 RI b/sets

200 ez

2x [25/50/75/100/75/50/25] kick @ :30 interval for each 25

With the cold water...........it took the entire workout to work out my back.

Thanks moregon, I was thinking about putting up some lifting workouts.

I'm just getting back into the lifting routine after a few weeks break (crappy surf makes me feel less like working out) so I thought I'd start with a burner. I'm not sure of the names of all the equipment that I use, but they work. I'm thinking about moving the workouts to the morning, as my evenings are usually busy.

Chest Workout
I always start with about 10-15 minutes of jogging to warm up with.

3x10 reps - incline free weight flys
3x30 reps - cable fly machine (10 incline, 10 normal, 10 decline)
3x10 reps - decline machine
3x10 reps - incline machine
3x10 reps - decline cable flys (That's what I would call it. It looks like I'm doing that strong man pose)
3x10 reps - push-ups on medicine balls (or until I can't do any more)

I haven't usually done a lot of leg workouts, just running, but I might be doing a water polo tournament in the spring and my legs aren't as strong as they used to be.

Decided to top it off this evening with an hour long step class.

Now when you boys are done giggling I suggest you try one some time.
