"In this segment we're definitely sweating in the pool. You never thought you would be sweating in the pool but you can because after we've worked so hard and we've isolated all of our muscles, we're ready for a little bit of a cool down. The heart rate should be up and pumping, we just finished whether we were treading, or holding on to a wall, working on our muscles we're ready to kind of make our way back down to the shallow end and begin that slow down run again. Remember you're still working out, we're just trying to kind of slow our heart rate back down getting back to a comfortable position, running from one end to the other. Now you can take as long as you want on this until you feel comfortable with what you did. Maybe you feel like you didn't workout hard enough, so do a few extra laps, it's not big deal. It's just adding a little more cardio to that workout going from one end to the other. We don't need to do high knees or kick backs this time, just a slow jog to really calm all of muscles down, let the blood flow back down from all the workout that we just in the pool that you couldn't imagine you could of done without any equipment, no weights, no running, treadmill, nothing like that and I bet your joints and your ankles don't hurt, do they?"
