Anybody in /fit/ swim? For a club, high school team, college, or otherwise. I swam for Nadadores.

Some tips: Swim without your palm; i.e. closed fist. You'll learn to use your arms to pull instead of just your hand. You'll get more tired, but that's sort of the point. Also, you will pull more water and go faster.

I swim in the morning at my local pool. Unfortunately so does the high school swim team... so I feel like a tard. But at least I get my own lane. lol

That actually does help. You'll laugh, but my legs are usually exhausted after just a 50 of most kinds of strokes.

And I usually start paddling like a maniac after about 3/5 of the way back.

I started swimming last year for my high school swim team. I didn't try too hard, but I still managed to go from being hopeless to being terrible.

This year I went from terrible to laughable. I can't wait to take it as an intramural in college.

5'11", 144 pounds.

It was more of a realization that I wasn't getting any exercise, and that I would not be able to keep up my bad eating habits. My friends on the swim team convinced me to join. I'm glad I did.

I'm thinking of starting swimming, once I get my car. Nearest pool is an hour away.

I heard swimming gives you the best physique. Can anyone comment?

Swimming uses a lot of muscles just to move around. Different strokes use different muscle groups, so focusing on all of them you get the most benefit. The fact that it's not all sprinting unless you're in an actual competition makes it a good aerobic workout.

I swam in high school and lost weight from pigging out over the summers like nobody's business. It didn't take more than a month and a half to be back down to my swimming weight, and then i was mixing in weight training with swimming.

Think of it as jogging but your arms do more than keep you in stride/on balance. You can't not help but get in good shape from it. Best bang for your time.
