Swimming is a best exercise

Hello Akarshan, and welcome to MyLot.

I agree that swimming is one of the best exercises out there. Even for people who for physical reasons cannot take a long walk, swimming might work well for them, since it bears the weight of and buoys the body as we exercise it.

I've always loved to swim!

i agree swimming is so good for you and fun. even when your pregnant and cant really exercise you can swim to stay in shape. also love the freedom that being in the water gives you its like your free from all problems and restraints in life.

hi, swimming is surely excellent exercise. But I don't think it the best because not everyone has the access to it as often as one likes.
For example, if I want to have a swim, I normally have to go to a swimming pool, which is at least eight kilos away!
Besides, it really costs. The ticket price is around 20 RMB, that's 3 USD, and 20 RMB accounts for 1% of an average individual's whole month salary.
If the fare is ok, then here comes another problem. I can only to go a swimming pool after work, empty-stomached. So I have to eat either before swimming or after; that's another unnecessary expense. And the worst of all, when I finish swimming, remember how far it is from my home? and how late when I am finished? yes, it's both far and late. So I usually have to take a taxi. That's another 20 RMB. In all, a single one-person swimming would cost me 50 RMB or so, that's over 7.00 US dollars.

so, from the above, you can see that even if money is not a problem, time and energy are .

I think swimming is one of the best ways to lose weight. My friend told me that she did lose weight for doing swimming lessons. I want to lose weight too and I am considering swimming to be included in my lists of activities to keep me fit and lose weight.

My two sons love to swim and this is a good motivation for me to take swimming seriously. My husband is a good swimmer too.

Yes, i agree swimming is the best exercise if done regularly. It makes your body sexy. It also stretches and tones your muscles, that is why muscles becomes firm and proportioned. Unfortunately, i dont know how to swim hehe.

i agree too but how i wish i can swim. . . im afraid of learning to swim

swimming is good exercise, obviously, is a lifetime sports that benefits the body and the whole person, but what makes swimming good is depends on what your are trying to accomplish, whether for health (hear an lungs) or chance to be with some of your friends swimming it is undoughtely good and one of the best exercise..

Lol welcome to mylot yes swimming is one of the good exercises, i can't say if it is best or not, i used to swim in the river near my house as a guy, but now i prefer to walk for 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the evening, i don't have health problems lol.

swimming really is a very helpful sport. it keeps you fit, energizes you and even prevents the occurrence of illness. the best thing about it, though, is you get to enjoy it with a lot of people at the same time. all you need is yourself,a couple of friends, the sun (or even the moon) and the water!=)

Hi Akarshan,

Swimming is definitely one of the best exercise and sport for me. It's good for toning all your muscles and will keep you fit and slim.

Welcome to Mylot and enjoy!
