Swimming is a fun activity for most everyone, especially during the warmer months of every year. However, when it starts getting to the colder months, most people will start avoiding the water. Unless, of course, the temperature was controlled \u2013 like perhaps in a heated pool. However, not everyone or every place can afford a heated pool. And what\u2019s more is that there is no way to heat up a lake, a river, or even the open ocean. So how exactly do you deal in this situation? Do you know how to stay warm in cold water without a wetsuit? After all, the water can get freezing cold sometimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most people would generally just avoid going swimming during the colder months. Personally, I used to do that myself, and often I still do. But it\u2019s not always an avoidable situation \u2013 for example, back in the day when I was still in high school and doing swimming as a sport (and as a PE class), I couldn\u2019t pick my time slot. As a result, my swimming sessions were always in the early morning, when the sun hadn\u2019t yet had a chance to warm up the water even a little. Adjusting was always a pain, and my teeth would always chatter as my lips began to turn blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, it wasn\u2019t until later on in life that I really had to learn how to stay warm in cold water without a wetsuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
