Swimming

Swimming has long been known as an activity that increases cardiovascular health and builds muscle. Water’s natural buoyancy helps reduce stress on joints and potential damage to bones. Its natural cooling properties help reduce the possibility of overheating while burning calories, as muscles heat up from continuous rhythmic motion.

Here are 12 ways that swimming helps your body, soul and mind:
