Water Walking as Cross Training.

[Gidds]

I've already been to the beach this morning. I wanted to swim but it was a little chilly so after I dunked myself a few times I decided to walk out and investigate a new sand bar. Boy walking in water really gives a lot of resistance when you pick up your feet! I wondered if water walking might be a good addition to cycling, walking, running, and weight lifting?

When rehabbing from injury it is one of the best things going, so I would say yes, it would be good cross training.

plus its enjoyable. Grew up on Lake Michigan all my life and boy, even just playing in the water is a good workout. Especially if the tide is strong that day (granted you have to be careful)...but a great workout
