Wouldn't swimming laps make all this easy?
I guess the trick is once you get the flotation device, what type of exercise can one do without hurting their backs yet getting good aerobics. Again, maybe an idea is to use water-floats and to use arms to tread water - then work lower body later outside the pool. Or, maybe if lucky, one could use float and tread water (how many hours would an aerobic workout take this way?). Best but potentially dangerous it seems if in 9' of water and to tread water w/o anything - using arms and legs. Seems too easy w/o some kinda catch - namely terrible delayed-onset back pain.
Advice appreciated. This is quite a conundrum!
Thanks, Allan
