How many laps do I have to swim to get more stamina and loose wieght?
All pools are different, so I will give you a distance. You will be able to build your stamina and lose weight with a 3000 yard workout. 3 times a week.





As for your question about under water. Because water is all around you, your body has to work at all times. You will have resistance throughout the workout. However, it’s easier on the body because you are not going against any hard surfaces. Whenever an athlete is rehabbing, one of the activities that is highly recommended is swimming.
Reply:about 30 l;aps i usually do it
Reply:swimming is great for building muscles and cardio. i'd start out slow if ur just starting b/c when ur swimming u use different muscles than running. as many laps to get you tired i suppose, play it by ear. yes water has lots of resistance b/c it's denser (if u ran in jello it would have more resistance b/c it is even more denser!). resistance like this is another great reason to swim b/c the more resistance the harder ur muscles have to work and improve.


swim like you would lift weights: you wouldn't start out bench pressing 200 lbs! start with what's comfortable and work ur way up
