About this listen

After a painful slip disc, my doctor prescribed swimming—not as a hobby, but as a healing strategy. In this episode, I explore why swimming is one of the best isotonic exercises for people over 40, helping to build muscle, protect joints, improve posture, and reverse the impact of a sedentary lifestyle. Discover how water workouts support bone health, strengthen the core, decompress the spine, and offer a low-impact yet powerful alternative to high-intensity training. Whether you’re recovering from injury, battling back pain, or looking to age actively, this episode will inspire you to dive in and make swimming your lifelong wellness habit.
