Swimming – Day 2

I was warned yesterday that my body is going to ache. Fortunately that did not happen. There was some pain in my arms but otherwise I was ok.
By the way, what I did not mention yesterday is we start the session by walking in the water, front, backwards and sideways.
On day 2 there has been some progress. I could manage to stay afloat for longer duration before I hit the pool floor. I was given the kickboard and I practiced floating using the help of that. Also did some gliding straight ahead.
I can now relax more than yesterday.
One thing I realised today, when I step out of the pool after an hour, I can suddenly feel my weight. To carry this weight around now seems to need an effort!
