[RC] Is swimming a benifit to conditioning when you can't ride? - andrea crisfi


Hi RC
This is kinda a spin off. My work schedule makes it hard to train. A little 
info...my long week at work 5 and a half days and then on my short week I only 
work 2 days. To make things worse I have to haul out to ride 
(26 miles one way). It is almost impossible to ride on my long week at work. 
and on my short week I ride 3 sometime 4 days. So I am always worried I am not 
getting enough ride time in to do the longer distances (50s). There is a place 
pretty close to me where I can take my horse to swin in a beautiful pool. So I 
have been taking him once a week. 

Is there any fitness benifit to this? He seems to get quite a workout.
any pros or cons?
Thanks
