that isnt a terrible time - I don't swim for speed nor do I have  any sort of great classic form in the water - I do a modified breast stroke on one lap and modified backstroke on the return and repeat.  Bout the longest I swim is 45 minutes straight.

I alternate laps freestyle and backstroke.  The latter is really good for the back muscles which I really needed. 45 min is good.  When you start back don't do too much ...build up gradually.  I learned that the hard way.  Realized I've got nothing but time. I swim M-W-F.  Do the treadmill (which I hate) and a couple of other things T-X.

Very impressive and I seriously doubt I could do that right now.  100 is a lot!  Well done!

TYVM...I started swimming a year ago in March after controlling a medical condition I  previously did not know I had that was zapping my energy (Celiac disease).  When I 1st started swimming I could not go a full lap.  My goal was to be doing something in the pool for 30 min.  I have had a couple of setbacks...a rotator cuff strain and knee strain (known as swimmer's knee).   Worked on strengthening those areas, learned to use better technique and be patient. As they say...1 step at a time.

Good for you. My wife just got us a membership over at Phifer so now I have no excuses. The combo of the pandemic and moving back to the south has been brutal for me. I've put on about 30 pounds on the past three years. I'm 40 now and it just happens a lot easier than it used to and away from CO I don't have constant snowboarding to both remind me when I'm getting out of shape and motivate me to be in shape. I really need to get back into mountain biking. The snowboarding in western NC is trash but the mountain biking is legit. I just need actual motivation to stay in shape and I haven't had it the past couple of years. I've been fly fishing too damn much. I love fly fishing but as long as you're in shape to hike a couple of miles that's really all it takes.

      Carolina Panthers a Wild Card Team?

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      It's just a talking head.  Talking about gambling. If anybody takes the under on 4.5 wins, they're most likely losing their money.   So he's only saying if you want to bet on a possible sleeper, take the over.  It's not rocket science.  Pathetic that so many on the huddle have reduced themselves to posting purely trash every time they hit the submit button.

      I mean I think the best case scenario has to hit for the Panthers and everyone else in the NFCS has to hit their worst case scenario.  Personally, I think this is the year that NO finally collapses and I think they finish 4th in the division regardless.  ATL is overrated but still likely a 6-9 win team. TB plays tough football, their defense will be there but their success depends on the offense, they too are a 6-9 win team.  The Panthers are probably 4-6 wins at best. If they find some sort of momentum during the season and get 7-8 wins, and TB and ATL struggle then maybe but I find it very unlikely.

      2025 QB Draft Class

      By 45catfan · Posted

      We screwed up a couple years ago taking Bryce in the first place.  Nobody held a gun to our head to jump from #9 to #1.  Most people who keep up with draft news knew this 2024 QB class was loaded and we should have waited, which I advocated. It was a dumb move and I knew it.  Now we have to roll with Bryce another year.  That's fine, because this 2025 class isn't that great.  I like Ewers, but not super high on him.  If Bryce shows improvement, which I think he will, that should get him at least one more season before we have to decide on if he's the permanent answer or not.  I've said before, the 2026 draft is the next window for a franchise QB if Bryce isn't the answer. Bryce gets this year and next at a minimum.
