Swimming is an exercise that works large areas of our body, the muscles of the arms, legs, chest, back, neck, just to mention a few. Water offers resistance to muscular movements and this makes training more efficient, which is why it is highly recommended for people who do not have much time available and still want to exercise.
That's right, it also improves the health of the tendons and joints. Each time we extend our arms and legs this allows us to have more flexibility and mobility of our body.
Among the muscles that exercise is also the heart due to the physical effort we make, this helps the health of the heart and avoid circulatory problems such as varicose veins
Oxygen is a key resource for aerobic exercises and because we are in the water it is necessary that our lungs take advantage of it efficiently, this goes hand in hand with the circulatory system. It is an excellent rehabilitation for smokers, in a few weeks they can see improvements.

The main cause of these annoying pains is poor posture. To swim properly we must keep our body properly aligned, for this reason we exercise the muscles of the back that carry the weight of our torso and head, which helps us to have a better posture.
It is a low impact sport that allows you to burn a large number of calories, consistency with the help of a healthy diet will allow you to see incredible results.
