Swimming is a complete body workout that is gentle on the joints, making it an excellent option for Baby Boomers as we are Aging. Unlike many forms of physical activity, swimming offers a unique blend of enjoyment and rigorous physical exertion. It is an excellent cardiovascular workout that enhances heart Health by improving circulation and lowering blood pressure. It demands that the body constantly supply oxygen to the muscles, which strengthens the heart and improves overall endurance. The resistance of water makes swimming an effective way to build muscle tone and strength. Unlike weight training, which often targets specific muscle groups, swimming engages multiple muscles simultaneously, providing a balanced workout that tones the entire body. Water’s buoyancy reduces the strain on joints and muscles, making swimming a low-impact Exercise suitable for those with Arthritis, or recovering from injury. Our Experts in this area of the site talk about how the rhythmic nature of swimming strokes provide a calming effect that can significantly reduce Stress and Anxiety levels as well as how the focus on breathing and technique helps sharpen focus and mental Clarity.
Swimming is one of the top calorie-burning exercises, with the potential to burn between 400-700 calories per hour. Consistent swimming builds muscle mass and cardiovascular endurance, contributing to long-term weight management and health. Whether you’re looking to improve your health, meet new friends, or take up a new hobby, swimming offers a wealth of benefits that can enrich your life.

Let’s talk about two things that will ruin a perfectly good summer
day faster than a sudden thunderstorm: heat rash and sunburn. One
is a prickly little nuisance. The other is a fiery betrayal of your own good sense.

day faster than a sudden thunderstorm: heat rash and sunburn. One
is a prickly little nuisance. The other is a fiery betrayal of your own good sense.
Both are avoidable. Both will make you miserable. And both are very, very funny
in retrospect (but not at 2:00 AM when you can’t stop scratching).
Heat Rash (a.k.a. Prickly Heat)
You’ve been outside. It’s humid. You’re wearing that nice cotton
shirt, but the collar is a little snug. Or you’ve been sitting in your favorite
patio chair with the plastic weave that doe…

This week on Swimming with Allocators, Earnest and Alexa welcome Senia Rapisarda of HarbourVest, who walks through her journey from Italy and Wall Street to leading venture and growth efforts in Canada, first at BDC and now as a major LP. She explains how Canada’s venture ecosystem has evolved, the creation and impact of the Venture Capital Action Plan, and why innovation capital is critical to national sovereignty. The conversation covers what makes great Canadian fund managers (curiosity, humility, team-building, and agility), how emerging managers should approach institutional LPs and avo…

When Anthony and Catherine sold their home and left their careers behind, they didn’t know exactly what to expect from eight years as nomads. What they discovered was that long term travel tips matter far less than the mindset you bring to the journey. Running With Cat documents their extraordinary adventure across five continents, and within that story lies wisdom about how to actually live abroad for extended periods.
Nomadic living isn’t a vacation. It’s a complete reimagining of how you operate in the world. When you’re running marathons in Madagascar, walking the Great Wall of Chi…

Send us Fan MailThe hardest part of “helping” a family after an autism diagnosis can be admitting that your old playbook no longer fits. Jennifer Kaufman knows that tension from both angles: she spent years as a principal at a school for children with autism through age 21, and she’s also the grandmother of an autistic eight-year-old. When her grandson was diagnosed, expertise wasn’t the missing piece. The missing piece was learning how to shift expectations, step back from the expert role, and show up as the kind of support her daughter actually needed. We dig into what grandparentin…

This week on Swimming with Allocators, Earnest and Alexa welcome Teddy Repko of the Yuhaaviatam sovereign wealth fund (San Manuel Band of Mission Indians), who shares how his global upbringing, risk-aware personality, and early trading career shaped his investing approach, and how a shift at Columbia’s endowment from hedge funds to relationship-driven venture gave him a front-row seat to the asset class. He breaks down how LPs really underwrite managers—balancing base rates, power-law math, and portfolio construction with deep people and relationship assessment—and flags both opportuniti…
