probably week-willed, feeble-brained slaves, who were too chicken-poo poo and retarded and incompetent to stand up for theirselves.

That's like asking "how did they fill gas tanks before cars and machinery were invented"

OP. Water wasn't invented until 1400, therefore nobody swam before that.

with peepee lolol no but really they used normal plumbing made from lead/wood/lead-lined wood and used water pressure to keep them full. Some of the ones in poorer towns were just concrete ponds that filled with rain water

Now imagine being a rich medieval lord and having a swimming pool filled...with beer! The grain your peasants need to eat to survive taken away and brewed. Yeah you'd smell like stale beer but in those days people who washed more than twice a year were considered odd anyway and toilet paper hadn't been invented, so I'd imagine smelling strongly of beer would be an improvement (speaking of, probably don't drink the beer after swimming in it). If you were French you'd probably use wine instead of beer, and you'd turn purple. You could also be like that Bathory chick and fill a swimming pool with the blood of teenage girls, but it would probably coagulate and turn into the world's biggest fly-covered clot. You could even go with milk, but definitely don't drink it, a bunch of new age idiots died recently after drinking milk that was marketed for bathing purposes only.

Early swimming pools were filled with chunks of foam to differentiate them from moats.
