Is swimming an effective exercise to lose weight? How long until I see results?
How long should I swim for, per day, to lose weight? Also, how long will it take before I start to see the results of doing so?
I am taking a very effective water aerobics class once a week. The other time I use the bike or treadmill. It is effective because u are exercising and toning muscles u never knew u had. Try and use the treadmill for at least 45 mins before swimming, this way when u jump in the pool it will seem as if it was a reward for getting to ur 45 mins. Also in the pool u can do all ur stretching and it doesn’t feel like u are, It is very relaxing too.
Try it 3-5 times a week and don’t just weigh urself, take measurements too. Some weeks u will lose inches too. Keep all of it in a journal and only weigh and measure once a week. U will be surprised at the results u get. It may work for u. that is what i do and so far so good. I have lost 13 lbs and 4 inches of my waist in just 3 weeks. Also eating right and trying to go to the gym everyday if only to get in the pool and do a couple laps…
Good luck to you. I know you’ll succeed if u want it bad enough…♥

Some pools have exercise classes in the water. I’ve heard it is very effective. It takes pressure of your leg joints.

swimming does a little bit of everything. its a cardio and helps with your stamina. it also works alot of your muscles. it wont make you buff, but it will tone your muscles whichs gives you that nice cut body. i would suggest go for a about 30 mins. once a day about 5 times a week, off and on. then within a couple weeks you will see the results.
