I now go to the swimming pool to do laps 4-5 days a week.

I tried it and got totally obsessed with swimming. It wasn’t until I was 40 that I had a total turn around after listening to a podcast episode by Tim Ferris where he talked about this total immersion swimming method by Terry Laughlin. But, my dad was not a fan of the hard-hitting and recurring injuries and was always trying to get me to dive into the pool rather than lace up my skates.Īs I got older I realized that swimming was a great sport that would be easy on my joints and keep me in shape but just never could get into it and doing laps just seemed boring. Like most of my friends, I started young and loved the game. Growing up in Minnesota, hockey was the go-to winter sport.
