    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.
