What worked?
I have been on the swim team since I was 8 and I love to be in the water. The water aerobics are something that I really like to do. It is an especially great workout for resistance training if you are returning from an injury. I enjoyed the across the pool kicking to really get my heartrate up.
What didn't work?
Treading water was not very hard for me being very acclimated for the water but I had a lot of fun playing. The workout was not very hard for me and did not get my heartrate going too much, however I think swimming laps would be more on the difficultly level I would have needed.
What I would do differently...
The across the floor lunges, high knees, and etc. I thought were great exercises and I would have added more of them along with flutter kicking. I think the water polo was a very fun activity however instead of playing twice we could have done vertical kicking with different kicks alternating with treading water in the deep end.

Yes, remember your swim team workouts involved miles of swimming in one day...and you are such a smooth swimmer . I miss watching you compete.
