Exercise of the Day:
Shed fat by stripping...to your cossie!! Researchers have found swimmers have trimmer waists and more lean muscle than land-based exercisers. Get into the pool for 45 minutes for a brilliant full body workout. Or try a local aqua class if this will make you work harder - this is great fun especially if you go along with a friend or family member. Give it a go!!

Let me know how you get on :)
