I have recently been incorportating pool laps in my work out. Any differences you can speak of as far as endurance or paddle strangth?

Swimming laps is good. Doing underwater laps is also good. BUTT if you want to feel a difference in your surfing endurance (thread steal) there is nothing better than an hour of plyometrics or kempo 2x a week. You will know the difference.

Yes, swimming laps is the best. Endurance and strength improvements. No brainer. It helps to have a pool in the backyard though. I use to swim laps in the shorepound when I lived beachside then jog in the soft sand. But, no longer live beachside so swim laps in the pool instead. It really helps me and It is a requirement for me to do. At my age, gotta keep moving! Which reminds me I have slacked off and haven't swam in 3 days.

Just for the record books and any future internet searches. Gert made Cat 2

Seems to me if it goes through the strait as most models above seem to show we won't get much more than a Gert squirt.
