Today, @HealthWizard will discuss the benefits of swimming for the body.

The benefits of swimming for body and health :

  • Healthful Heart

Swimming can serve to train the power of the heart. Swimming helps to smooth the heart's circulation while pumping blood and send it to all parts of the body. It is aerobic exercise for cardiovascular training. People who regularly practice swimming for 12 weeks have an increase in the amount of blood being pumped.

  • Shaping and Strengthening muscles

Swimming is very good to maintain the fitness and health of our body, because by swimming almost all the muscles of the body involved in the sport movement of the pool, so this pool is very beneficial for health and fitness. Swimming also serves to strengthen muscle triceps muscle, triceps muscle is the muscle located at the back of the arm.

  • Train balance and flexibility

With swimming means you train flexibility of the legs and hands, you can try some swimming styles with a risk that is not too high compared to other sports. Balance is also a benefit derived from the results of regular exercise. People who swim routine will certainly have a better balance compared with people who don't swim.

  • Keeping Weight

Swimming is powerful enough to maintain ideal body weight. Imagine, just by swimming for one hour you can burn 100-200 calories, of course with consideration how efficient you swim. Calories are burned depending on your exercise routine, the more you routine then the swim can burn calories better than with other sports such as cycling.

  • Reducing the risk of Asthma

Another benefit of swimming for the body is to reduce the risk of asthma, this is because the pool is very helpful in exercising breathing, so that the lungs become more healthy and train breathing more regularly.
