Hi,
I'm at extremely unfit person looking to lose weight and get fit at Ponds Forge (I'm a Fitness Unlimitited member). I go to the gym at the moment but not as regularly as I should and I think having a partner will help keep me motivated!
I'd particulary like to go swimming but am not a strong swimmer so don't think I'm brave enough for lane swimming yet. I can't afford lessons so am hoping to go to the leisure pool and aqua aerobics to build up my fitness and skills...I'm up for classes, the gym and I'm pretty good at table tennis so hoping to do that too if I can fit it all in.
If you're female and looking to lose weight like me send me a message!

Sounds like you've got the right mindset which is a great starting point. Why don't you speak with a member of the fitness team on your next visit to the gym and they might be able to help with the motivation; they might even be able to introduce you to other people who are looking for a partner to exercise with. Good luck!
Well done for starting your challenge!
Try the shallow water lane swimming on Tuesdays & Thursday evenings, 19.00 - 21.30, at Ponds Forge. They take place in the leisure pool so generally you are always within standing depth.
The sessions were set up mindful that there are swimmers are aren't confident using the competition pool.

Hi,
I'd particulary like to go swimming but am not a strong swimmer so don't think I'm brave enough for lane swimming yet.
You could build up your swimming at Concord as there isn’t a “deep” end as such, I think it’s only about five foot max.
