Tips

Remember to Warm Up. (From the ASA Website)

Always remember to warm up before swimming. You could try starting your session by stretching, gliding around the pool and a few slow lengths of the pool. Warming up is vital to get the blood flowing around your body and to your muscles. It will encourage your body to adapt to the water and become more flexible, meaning you will find the lengths to come easier! It will also help you avoid injury.
