I swim laps in our backyard pool. Lots of reversals, but 6/7 strokes each for 30 minutes is a good workout for me. Also do other exercises that are done in place. When exercises are done sit under the falls and let tne water massage relax those muscles. Then, we float, read and relax.
And, just because we aren't seen as one passes by doesn't mean we don't use it.
