Swimming

For endurance and health

Swimming is a great workout because you need to move your whole body against the resistance of the water.
​ It is a good all-round activity because it:

• Keeps your heart rate up but takes some of the impact stress off your body. ​
• Builds endurance, overall muscle strength in your core and improves cardiovascular fitness.
• Helps maintain a healthy weight and enduring heart and lungs.
• Tones muscles and builds strength.
• Provides an all-over body workout, as nearly all of your muscles are used during swimming.
