    I am doing an online survey about swimming. Please fill out the poll if you can or can not swim.

    Swimming is the best exercise IMO since it seems all muscles are worked.

    I was a life guard years ago.

    Also, after dislocating and breaking an elbow only swimming was able to rehabilitate my arm to stretching straight out and bringing it all the way up to my face.

    The poll results are really amazing; 100% of all the participants so far can swim!

    Right when I typed this we got a non-swimmer. The plot thickens!

    i swim

    i didnt for decades but then 2 years ago i started again because its great exercise and doesnt aggravate my back pain

    i wont swim in pools though...just lakes ...i spend all winter thinking about it..just 5 months to go before the lake temp is bearable again

    I see it as a solitary workout.

    Welcome to one of the biggest online fora. Or do you not consider us to be people?

    makes sense. so you would do a private pool if you had one then?

    This is my thread and I decide if we can play in the water together or not. And I decide we can.
