  Lifeguard Lifeguards come in all sizes and shapes, and they work inside as often as on the beach. It is, however, an extremely important job because it involves keeping people safe. Lifeguards are expert swimmers who work at almost any location where people swim. They know how to save a person who is drowning or who has sustained an injury while swimming, and they can give artificial respiration if required. They keep a close eye on all the people under their care. The job of a lifeguard has a great deal of responsibility. What does a Lifeguard do? In general, a lifeguard monitors a recreation facility or a beach to make sure swimmers are following safety rules and no one is having trouble. He or she generally sits on a tall chair with a good view of the wate

Benefits of Surfing Surfing is one of the most engaging forms of watersport around. The act of riding the face of a wave may look simple to outsiders, but in reality it takes a lot of time and effort to master the skills needed to be able to surf well. Surfing is a fun and challenging activity that engages both the mind and body. It is a total workout that includes the entire gamut of what people look for when it comes to health and fitness.

Growing another human being inside of you changes a lot, which means some tweaks to your coastal trip. Check out what you need to know before you go! 1.

Introduction to swimming Swimming is an activity that burns lots of calories, is easy on the joints, supports your weight, builds muscular strength and endurance. It also improves cardiovascular fitness, cools you off and refreshes you in summer, and is one that you can do safely into old age. In this article, I'll review the history of swimming, the benefits, the strokes, how to get started, what to wear, the equipment you need, where to swim, and more. What is the history of swimming? Human beings have been swimming for millennia. According to Wikipedia, Stone Age cave drawings depict individuals swimming and there are written references in the Bible and the Greek poems "The Iliad" and "The Odyssey" dating back 1,500 to 2,000 years. There are even Egyptian clay seals from 4000 BC showing four swimmers doing a version of the crawl, and the most famous swimming drawings were apparently found in the Kebir desert and were estimated to be

What are the benefits of swimming? There are plenty of reasons to swim! Here's a list that should get you motivated. Low impact There's no ground impact when you swim, and so you protect the joints from stress and strain. In fact, the Arthritis Foundation strongly recommends swimming and water activities for this reason, so much so that they sponsor water classes all over the country. Water aerobics classes are also desirable for this reason, because even if you do jump and hit the bottom of the pool, you do so with less force because you're buoyant in the water. Not only that, but if you wear or hold a flotation device during a water aerobics class, the impact is even less. Can be continued for a lifetime Because there's no impact with swimming, it can be continued for a lifetime. Builds cardiorespiratory fitness Swimming improves endurance. In one study of sedentary middle-aged men and women who did swim training for 12 weeks, maximal

5 tips on keeping you Swim Fit 1. Swim slow ! Yes S L O W!! try not to thrash your way down the pool; instead try to control the movements of your body in such a way that you create the least amount of SPLASH! This way you’re least likely to break the water tension as much and therefore cause less water to disturb around your body as you move through it. 2. Instead of smashing out a long hard session once a week, try swimming shorter, and more frequent sessions . You’ll improve your feel for the water, relax more and you’re more likely to concentrate on your technique. Your swimming will exponentially increase simply from exposing your body to the water for often. 3. Learn to swim other strokes besides freestyle . Why not try butterfly? Oh yes! Did you know butterfly is the best stroke to strengthen your freestyle? Adults can learn this stroke as much as kids can. We just need a little push to try something new! 4. Mix it up! Incorporate some surf

What equipment do we need for swimming? Swimsuit You'll need a swimsuit unless you plan on skinny-dipping! Like many other things, technology has entered the swimsuit arena as well. Fabrics are designed for minimal resistance through the water, they tend to last a long time, and they resist fading even when used repeatedly in chlorinated pools. Of course, not all of us would be comfortable in the skimpy racing suits that you see Olympians wear, but you can still find a modest swim wear. Comfort is the most important quality in selecting a swimsuit. You're less likely to swim if you're uncomfortable in your suit. Goggles Goggles protect your eyes from chlorine (and anything else that may be in the water), and they help you keep your eyes open while you swim so that you can see where you're going. You can even get prescription swim goggles if you wear glasses (check with your optician for availability). To find the right pair of goggles, do the

Introvert vs Extrovert, what we can learn from both. Personalities come in all different forms. Some people have loud, outgoing and socially confident personalities whilst others have quieter, shier and more independent personalities. It is quick to assume those who are quieter are introverts and those who are louder are extroverts but this assumption undermines the idea of personality and the notion that we all fit on a spectrum. As Carl Jung famously said   “There is no such thing as a pure introvert or extrovert. Such a person would be in the lunatic asylum.”   Therefore there is a little introvert in all of us as well as a little extrovert. Some people tend to exert certain characteristics more than others. And neither one is better than the other. But, generally speaking, what is an introvert and what is an extrovert? The Oxford Dictionary de

 How To Manage Your Time in the Workplace. Minimize distractions under your control Where possible, control over your immediate work environment can be crucial, effective and productive. Clutter: A cluttered office can increase stress and be the result of delayed decision making. Determine a place free from distraction (no cell phone or text messaging!) where you can maximize your concentration and be free of the distractions that friends or hobbies can bring! You should also have a back-up space that you can escape to, like a library, departmental study center, even a coffee shop where you can be anonymous. A change of venue may also bring extra resources. What is the best work space you can think of?
