Jena Eden Swimming Pool Check-In! 🌊🏊‍♂️

Just smashed a 1000m freestyle today at Jena's Eden Schwimmbad—what a fantastic facility! 🎉 Compared to the senior sports center in Aalen, the level here is noticeably higher. The pool is a proper 50-meter lane, though currently split into two 25m sections (a bit of a bummer, but still great for training!). The water quality is excellent—crystal clear and perfectly maintained. 💦✨ After the swim, my muscles were screaming, but in the best way possible. 💪 To refuel, I grabbed some post-workout snacks—because, let’s be real, swimming 1K burns a ton of calories! 🔥 My better half (the real boss of the household 👑) had a craving, so we did a quick grocery restock—salty snacks were a must to replenish those electrolytes. 🥨🍇 Why Jena’s Pool Stands Out: ✔ 50m Olympic-sized pool (even if temporarily halved) ✔ Top-notch water quality—no weird chlorine overload ✔ Serious swimmers—less splashing around, more lane discipline ✔ Great facilities—clean changing rooms, good showers Post-Swim Recovery Essentials: Hydration: Coconut water + electrolytes 🥥 Protein: Greek yogurt + nuts 🥜 Carbs: Whole-grain bread + avocado toast 🥑 Treat: Dark chocolate (because why not?) 🍫 Overall, a solid training session with the perfect balance of effort and relaxation. If you're in Thuringia, this pool is worth the visit! 🌟 #Germany #SwimmingInGermany #Jena #Freestyle #SwimLife #AthleteRecovery 🚴‍♂️🏊‍♀️
