Ok, I joined the YMCA about 3-4 weeks ago. I really like swimming laps and didn't think I would enjoy it. If I go to the gym, there are others there who can watch you. There are the muscle guys who look at the women, even old ones like me. So I don't really enjoy the gym much. But I go into the lap pool, especially the shallower one and swim laps in the free lane when little kids are having lessons in the other lanes. Nobody pays attention to me so I can relax and concentrate on the water and my movement. I'm getting a little better each time and moving faster. I really enjoy it and I just never thought I would! And I got free registration in July!! It is very relaxing so I recommend it highly to anyone considering!!
