This may be obvious to all swimmers but I never realized how effective swimming can be as a mobility tool. I had some persistent upper shoulder flexibility issues and soreness since the last race. Today’s swim seemed to have healed those ills and the strict presses and cleans almost became poetic afterwards. I’m glad I rediscovered swimming.
