LastOneIn Posted May 8, 2021 Posted May 8, 2021 I like to swim laps for exercise. Any chance I could find a gym in a major city like Cebu with an indoor, heated lap pool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy79 Posted May 8, 2021 Posted May 8, 2021 I've swam in many hotel pools but never once found a heated one. The ambient temperature of the air seams good enough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most pools are out door. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short answer... yes to the pool... theres a YMCA that had one last time I was there... probably a few more.... but "heated" though??? Like JGF said... no need... if anything they need to be cooled down !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, he was quite specific about what he was looking for, a heated indoor pool for laps. Nobody would heat an outdoor pool here but if indoor maybe he is concerned about the a/c? In Hong Kong our apartment pool was heated and it was outdoor so it's not such a crazy concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Tommy T. Posted May 9, 2021 Forum Support Posted May 9, 2021 2 hours ago, RBM said: Crazy, why on earth would anyone want a heated pool here........ Agreed. Back many years ago I swam laps every day in an indoor heated pool. I found that I would get overheated after several laps and would have welcomed it if it were cooler - although not heated in Seattle might mean hypothermia. I prefer quite cool water for the laps because I can swim farther without the heat stress. Heated would be okay for just splashing around, I think. And most pools I have seen or been in at resorts are not usually big enough nor designed for lap swimming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a struggle first few times, now after an hour or so I feel great, very invigorated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
