Swimming is not a lifetime. Come to study at 40 +.

💧 40 + Just learned to swim... too late?

"The answer is no."

In the past, I was afraid of water, because I drowned often in my childhood, afraid of not breathing, and deeply afraid of looking funny in other people's eyes.

But after the surgery, I had the idea to do a lot of things that I never dared to do. Swimming was part of it, and I had a thrombosis before, so I found a new exercise to replace walking or running alone.

Swimming is a very safe and good exercise for people with a DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) or deep vein thrombosis because it promotes blood flow without increasing impact risk like other exercises.

✅ Benefits of swimming to those with DVT history:

1. Stimulate inherent blood flow.

Water has resistance, which allows the leg muscles to work while in constant motion.

Make blood flow back to the heart, especially from the legs to the heart, reducing the chance of repeated blood clots.

2. No impact

Unlike running or jumping, swimming is a low-impact exercise that does not damage or irritate blood vessels.

Very good for people who have varicose veins or have had a blood clot.

3. Reduce swelling in the legs

I spent a little time learning to swim, and I started by admitting, "I can't swim," and encouraging myself the same way I gave my patients.

The feeling of releasing the foam and swimming for the first time is great, it's like stepping over yourself yesterday with fear and fear.

I'm not good at swimming right now...But I'm not afraid anymore. 😊

And try to swim often to get better.

💙, no matter how old, can start over.

On the first day of the pool, you've won your fear.
