Increased Strength Unlike other forms of conventional cardio, such as running or stair climbing which is purely an aerobic cardio based activity, swimming through the water has resistance working against you no, swimming will not build you a physique like a bodybuilder however both strength and muscle are built via swimming. Increased Bone Mass Research published in the journal of Applied Physiology indicates that both BMD (bone mass density) and femoral bone weight are increased via swimming. Albeit this research is relatively new and further studies are required it is a fantastic indication to the endless benefits of swimming that are still being uncovered to this day. Increased Flexibility & Mobility Unlike sitting on a stationary bicycle which requires relatively minimal movement of the body (and therefore does not do much in terms of flexibility and mobility) swimming is quite the opposite! When performing essential any form of swimming youll find yourself pulling, twisting, stretching and driving your body through the water with no impact on your joints while doing so. Youll Burn A Plethora Of Calories You may not work up the same sweat you would if you were sprinting flat-out on a treadmill so theres a the misconception going around that swimming doesnt burn anywhere near as many calories this is not the case.

Heres a little bit of an insight into just how many calories you can burn while swimming: 10 minutes of breast stroke 60 calories 10 minutes of back stroke 80 calories 10 minutes of freestyle 100 calories 10 minutes of butterfly 150 calories
Decrease Stress And Feel Fantastic The combination of pushing yourself to your physical limits while focusing on your breathing as you glide through the water in an unstoppable fashion does wonders for your well-being and mental health. The endorphins released while swimming have been indicated to reverse damage from stress related issues such as hippocampal neurogenesis. Gentle On The Joints Running, skipping, jumping and many other forms of cardio are extremely taxing on the joints the constant bounding on the pavement is known to wear down your knees among other joints over time. This is in my mind the biggest differential between swimming and any other form of cardio while swimming youre not subjecting your body to any immense form of impact (only the resistance of the water). Many runners begin to wear down as they age, however the dedicated swimmer just keeps going and going!
