The benefits of swimming for our bodies

Now that the weather is warming up and the sea is waiting for us, remember that in addition to fun, swimming has many benefits for our health and body.

Exercising in the water provides the benefits of aerobic exercise on land, but without the negative effects. Water is one of the best ways to increase your flexibility and swimming increases the range of motion of the body without putting pressure on the joints.

Movement in water, based on water resistance, eliminates any strain on the joints. At the same time, it improves cardiorespiratory endurance, muscle strengthening and helps reduce body fat. In general, it works beneficially for the human body.

In water, body weight is reduced, which makes it easier for overweight people or those with orthopedic problems to exercise without any strain on their musculoskeletal system.

Hydrostatic pressure exerts a continuous massage on the surface of the skin, which has beneficial effects on people suffering from circulatory problems and varicose veins in the lower extremities, as well as in cases of cellulite.

Finally, swimming for an hour can burn 500 calories, while this activity also improves our mood.
