If someone tells me, “I know I should move. But when I don’t like sweating! ”My answer is clear: swimming with Lifeguard Training is the perfect sport for you. Even if you don’t do anything else, it will help you get in your dream shape in a few weeks.
Can I lose weight by swimming?
This is almost a rhetorical question. Of course yes!
If you do not do any other sport now, go swimming 3 times a week The swimming pool usually measures 25 meters or 50 meters. Therefore, evaluate for yourself how many swimming pools you will start with. My proven tip so that you don’t be put off by muscle pain in the beginning is to start with 4 pools (the 25-meter ones) in the first week . Of course, at every visit, not together for that week. 🙂 Add 1 extra pool every week . You should get to a number that will take you about an hour.Of course, this does not mean that you can now eat a sitting cake after each swim. If that makes you happy, why not. 🙂 To reduce weight, however, it is necessary not only to exercise, but also to follow a healthy diet.
So why actually lose weight in a swimsuit when you can lose weight in a swimsuit, right? 🙂
5x yes for swimming
- You do not strain the joints unnecessarily. So you can embark on it, even if the classic exercise is definitely unsuitable for you. Age, weight and condition do not matter.
- You will comprehensively involve the whole body.
- Absolutely naturally, you strengthen the neglected center of the body (so-called core), which keeps you upright and, most importantly, often affects back pain.
- You don’t need any expensive equipment. And unlike running shoes, you can really choose a swimsuit yourself , just according to your taste.
- There is a swimming pool in almost every city, admission is not expensive and you can go today.

The second advantage of swimming
I also highly recommend swimming due to the second factor: it helps you increase lung capacity and the so-called VO2max. Are you breathing up the stairs? Do mountain hikes have a problem with you, and when you run, do you give up on your lungs rather than your feet? So try to swim it.
Beware of the most common mistakes
Often newcomers plunge straight into the water, but soon a cramp drives them out. This usually means that you lack minerals in your diet, but it will also help if you stretch a little before swimming: arms, legs, body center. Be careful, you should avoid the sauna before swimming, it is quite demanding for the body. After a swim, go to the sauna. Warm up your cervical or lumbar spine, if you suffer from it, stretch again slightly and make yourself comfortable. You deserve it for your performance!

The second advantage of swimming: you stop blowing up the stairs and overall you can do other sports better

VO2max determines how much oxygen you can use in sports. When you have a low value, you “lack air” when moving. This is absolutely essential – the higher the VO2max, the better your performance. Layman: the less problem you will have in any other movement. This value is measured in milliliters per kilogram of body weight per minute.
If someone wants to do other sports but does not breathe them, I definitely recommend swimming as an additional activity.
Beware of the most common mistakes
Don’t forget to warm up and warm up eventually
Often newcomers plunge straight into the water, but soon a cramp drives them out. This usually means that you lack minerals in your diet, but it will also help if you stretch a little before swimming: arms, legs, body center. Be careful, you should avoid the sauna before swimming, it is quite demanding for the body.
After a swim, go to the sauna. Warm up your cervical or lumbar spine, if you suffer from it, stretch again slightly and make yourself comfortable. You deserve it for your performance!
Drink
Paradoxically, you swim in the water, but the body dehydrates in the pool. Even if you don’t visibly sweat, you give it a hard time, just like with any other exercise. So treat yourself to half a liter of clean water after training.
Crawl Style
Crawl is fast and more challenging, but when you swim a little, you will probably find it most effective. Pay attention to the position of the head. The breath should only be to the side, the head should not rise too high, again due to the natural position of the spine. When digging, stretch your legs nicely and keep your hands slightly bent.
