This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Ive not really seen private ones bigger than like 10m , usually closer to 5-7 i would think. Maybe Im spoiled by my 50m community one but I would find it annoying in 10m, I even take the 30 minutes extra trip to go to 50 instead of 25 and I am a beginner swimmer, ill go once or twice a month, do about a 1.5-2k in 60 mins.

Yeah you're actually swimming, going distance. That'd be miserable in a small private pool, for sure. What others are saying is that that isn't the only type of exercise you can do in water to burn a ton of calories, and those other types can be easily done in a private pool.

Fair enough, did not consider that since I only ever go in the pool to swim.
