ICE SWIMMING 2011 : 150 M

One of the first training in 2011; ice begins to melt, but as it freezes during the night, there were thin but sharp ice blocks floating, so to avoid them I sometimes had to swim in zigzag. Temp water 1,5° C; temp air 1°

[ulysse3329]

@dmitryrogalev Absolutely not!  It's a club of cold water swimming, and we train 2 times a week from September till end March; if you don't believe, come and swim with us in Belgium ;)

@Horiv10 temp water is about 1,5° C

[dmitryrogalev]

ok!! probably water in the swimming pool was heated!! why did not film thermometer?

[ulysse3329]

@thatisalliam Why not? You are brave and in good health... Begin with a cold shower during a few days ( a few seconds to get used with the difference of temp), then a quick dip ( in-out) and finally swimming gradually longer.. Warm-up before and after. Cold water swimming is good for immune system and is a good cardio training!
