How often do i need to swim to lost fat?

Hi





Iv been swimming for about one and a half months now, twice a week. I can manage 60 lengths in an olympic size pool. Iv noticed that my stamina has improved when playing football but i havent noticeed any significant loss of fat. How often do you need to swim a week to lose fat or to convert it to muscle?

It sounds like you are focusing too much on stamina and not enough on sprinting and getting your heart rate up. Instead of doing a lot of distance, try doing a practice with more sprints and kicking.





Also, if you want to lose weight, swimming is probably not the best sport to take part in. Although you burn a lot of calories in swimming, coldwater jogs your appetite so when you get out of the pool, you are eating more than you actually burned off. Swimming also builds on more lean muscle, so you will most likely gain weight before you lose any since muscle mass weighs more than fat. Try to control your appetite after your workout and eat healthy, and you could see a difference in your body.

To burn sufficient calories to lose one pound of body fat, you might:





- Briskly walk a total of 35 miles


- Swim moderately fast for 6 hours


- Dance for 12 hours
Reply:Every single day for atleast an hour and about 10 laps or more
Reply:swimming is a slow process to lose fat if you have a lot but if the fat you contain is minimum then swimming is one of the fastest ways of converting the fat to muscle
Reply:in order to lose weight in the water, it is not the distance that u cross that matters, but it is that, and the speed with which u are swimming!


ok!


u need to swimm 4 days a week, with no more that one day off in between, your body begins to accumulate fat after 48 hours!


so i can give u this small program, that u can use, and u can see that u are improving as well, not only lossing weight!


u said u can do 60 laps the full olympic pool, right, ok here how it shall go,


let us say your training will be. m. w. f and s!


these are the days of the week!


ok!


for the sunday training, do your normal routine, but in the last 10 laps, or 10 lenght do as follow:


2 lenght swimming, one length kicking, one length fast, twice, and end up with 2 laps, as cool down! next week do the same but increase it 2 laps, meaning, the last 12, and so on!


on mondays,:


do 10 laps as warm up, then 10 laps with stopping at each end for 20 secs, a bit more than the normal speed,


the next 10, same but 15 sec rest, and a small increase in your speed!


the 4 th ten, same, but 10 secs! more speed! u will feel burn out right there!


now, take the kick board, do 4X 4 laps at 30 secs between every four laps!


and 2 laps cool down!


the next week same, for 4 weeks,!on the 5th week, u make the entire 60 times the pool swimming, and add the kicking!


for the wednsday, u can do this, i call it the ladder!


this is a burn out training!


u start with 4 X the pool, rest 10 sec in between


then 4 X 2 times the pool, also rest 10


then 4 X 4 times the pool, also rest 10


then 4 X 2 times the pool, 10


4 X the pool, 10 in between!


u would feel burnt out!


for this to work out good in the last set, go as fast as u could!


ok!


for the last training do sprints


u have the half pool


make 20 X the half pool at max speed!


but before that do a warm ups!


ok!


like 8 times the pool!
Reply:...or you could cross train, for example, run. swimming in a pool actually keeps fat on your body. The colder the pool, the more fat your body naturally holds to keep warm and maintain homeostasis.





You could swim a lot, but not lose weight because the coldness of the water is actually keeping fat on you. This is what is happening to me.
Reply:Swimming is like any other exercise, you need to do it 3-5 times a week to see results. To lose weight through exercise, focus on maintaining your target heart rate for more than 30 minutes. This means swimming slowly with your heart rate at a moderate level for an hour would be the best way to lose fat.





Also, weight loss corresponds much more to what you eat than what you do. Exercise is important for overall health and building muscle, but it has to be combined with diet to see real results. Consider that swimming for an hour will probably burn around 500 calories, but that one cheeseburger easily cancels out that fat loss.
Reply:23 hrs 59 min, 59 sec should be okay. for a day.
