I'm swimming for same reason, its been so helpful. I love it. All sorrows melt away and its just me and the water. Greatest peace of mind I've had in months.
Sunrise, 1st thing in the morning prior to 30 minute brisk walk to gym for weight training then walk back. 64 years old 122/76 BP..... 5.10/180lbs Feel like Im 30 years old. The cold water of the pool in the am and late pm is excellent for muscle recovery.
Wow!!! I didnt know swimming releases stress strengthens the heart and improves back posture and joints. Whats unfortunate i use to swim all the time and i never knew this improves the body n brain. I should go back to swimming.
I’m a competitive swimmer and when we do backstroke in particular it helps balance out the back muscles as well as help to improve posture and correct rounded shoulders
@@Александр-у8й6д@moon_0207 nothing in their paragraph indicated nor inferred anything about them implying swimming is “the only that that improves mental health”. They simply stated they used to swim, found out it helps with cardiovascular system, said they need to start swimming again. That’s it.
@@mindrevolt I’ve been swimming since teens but there are times when I was absent for years. Longest absence was 6 years straight. Before covid I swam for 5 years and then absent for 1.5 years due to covid shutdown but been swimming since mid 2021 -present. The benefits? Hardly had any flu, easy to maintain my weight and lean.
Tomorrow is my 8th consecutive day of swimming for an hour! I'm a big dude and need to lose a ton of weight so for now I'm just doing swimming. eventually I will do weight lifting but right now I want to focus on swimming.
Swmming helped me during my pregnancy. The breast stroke was so useful to relieve back pain during the third trimester. I also did squats, lunges, other hip opening exercises in the pool. Helped so much with my delivery and postpartum.
I am mid-30 that seldom exercise but one day, for no particular reason, I think that if the best time to start is to act on the thought immediately, so I take on a swimming class (I learnt to swim for my asthma when I was young but did not get into the pool for years). The next day I felt sore, but I also felt good. There is something therapeutic being in the water. And needing to be conscious of your body movements and breathing is mindful for me.
Thank you for the presentation. You mention the aerobic benefits of swimming. You might also mention that swimming can become anaerobic. For those people who are interested in keeping their blood glucose low, during anaerobic exercise, glucose is infused directly into muscle cells, which bypasses the normal insulting induced process.
@@carnivoredownunder First I was imprecise in stating that anaerobic exercise reduce blood glycose. The issue is that is that blood glycose is constant but is less of the total in regards to intracellular total energy consumption during anaerobic exercise. I am talking about is the introduction of high-intensity interval training to swimming. In regards to intracellular skeletal muscle tissue, at high intensity exercise levels, the cell burns greater amounts of stored glycogen and triglycerides. The good thing is that this process activates underutilized metabolic processes and resources, which leads to better cell metabolism.. Because of my limits, at this time, I am am reluctant to describe these underutilized processes.
@@Pamanudavy I assume that like the rest of us over time you will grow older. It is a proven fact that resistance training and anaerobic exercise are useful for healthful ageing. You don't have to pay attention to what I have to say.
@@Pamanudavy Normally I would end this exchange without a reply. However, I do want to make it clear that I try not to make exchanges personal, but you have made it so. I certainly apologize if my wording was capable of being misinterpreted. Just saying that we all grow older would have been better.
I won't swim every day because the water is bad for your skin and hair. I now swim every 4 days and do cycling, weightlifting and yoga between. I love swimming but I noticed that tiny wrinkles started to map my face and my hair was getting quite dried. I'm 75 and didn't have wrinkles before. I refuse to have plastic surgery, Botox and so on. People look so banal and weird when they indulge in plastic surgery. Note: I'm still proud that at my age I can swim the butterfly without getting tired.
I’m a swim lover last 20 years , I love to be in the water , makes me feel so relaxed , definitely 3 times a week also I do Pilates everyday..combining these two exercises remedy for me 🤍
I have started swimming hard everyday after work for 1 hr. I train as if im preparing for a competition like i used to back in high-school and College. Im exhausted afterwards but the stress from work is gone as i feel super relaxed and dinner is that much better 😂.
Yes, swimming does all the things emphasized here including increasing (or helping to preserve) bone density. Those who say otherwise are not treating swimming as a serious exercise, which it definitely can be (is!) if done long enough, and with expenditure of energy/effort, placing stress on muscles (growing them while not making them huge), and this effect allows pressure to be placed on bones the muscles are moving (encouraging retention of bone density). Done for pleasure, even a hard workout in the pool can be bath sensual and meditative … a GREAT opportunity to either focus on am idea while exercising OR better yet, clearing the mind so it usin better shape later!
I dance everyday and to work on my stamina I started to swim. I don't enjoy it that much as dance, I am not that happy after swimming but I believe it will help me to have more energy when I perform on the stage.
I've always been an excellent swimmer in Freestyle and Backstroke, but I learned Butterfly from a collegiate swim coach at age 57. Now I'm 66 and Butterfly is my favorite stroke. It's a stroke that requires peak athletic ability and must always be practiced to maintain proficiency. I do lots of resistance swimming, too.
I haven’t swam for 14 years. No wonder I got back pain and weak muscles all the time. I should go back to swimming one day but not now as I’m busy with my work
I love swimming I feel relaxed in water , but I have issues trying to do the front flip and while doing the front stroke , I either miss the wall or I turn too close to the wall
For all those comments about the meditative benefits of diving.,…YES, you abd I must have experienced the clarity and freedom that comes from focus during diving. Diving is amazing in all its forms.., free diving, high diving etc. All of these while a few are strikingly different from one the other forms (to those who don’t know?) appear to (inter Alia) (1) involve the so-called “dive reflex” which lowers heart rate and has many other surprising metabolic effects, and (2) the FOCUS required to do all these firms of diving not only showing “good form” (eg for scores in competitions) also to avoid injury as all are inherently a bit dangerous (so is snowboarding, skiing: ice skating etc)…. THAT FOCUS and VISIALIZING THE BODY BEFORE ABD DURING THE DIVE CLEARS THE MIND OF ALL CLUTTER and WORRY. Some of us (like me) cannot .ever I twin the level of meditation quality AND salutary effects from any traditional form of “meditation” (eg seated, focusing in breath alone, etc)… JUST BENEFIT IN THE MEDITATIVE STATE NECESSARY FOR, OR INDUCED BY (or both!): DIVING.
Swimming and diving are excellent for mental relaxation. Diving, in particular, requires a specific breathing technique beforehand to dive longer, which helps lower your heart rate and makes you "semi-meditate."

What about all the chlorine exposure to your body on a daily basis if you are doing it in an indoor or outdoor pool every day? I agree that swiming is good but doing it in water that is treated daily probably not the healthiest thing for your skin.
I agree with the most of the facts stated, and for the bone density part, could you cite the research? Because until today all the research sfates that swimming and cycling at minimum do not benefit the bone density, or can even decrrase it. Thank you!
You're most likely right. I'd assume that it decreases for the same reason that being in space reduces muscle density due to weaker put of gravity or something like that.
@@JusticeJoachim your muscles tensing up and tugging on your bones should increase bone density. Though gravity helps a lot, the tension of your muscles against the bones should cause micro fractures in them as well and therefore increase density, especially if you do 50m sprints (for an example)
Can anyone please tell me that in uneven shoulder problem swimming is beneficial if yes then how many months it take to resolve uneven shoulder problem???
I agree. Just started a month ago to released trauma after broke up and today i feel so much better plus energic power in my daily activity 🎉❤
Have a good healing bud... Swimming really help our live physically and mentally 🔥

As a person who loves swimming and biking, I can confirm swimming is better.
That's cool

I used to think that swimming is not for me. And I live in front of the sea. I now go twice every day. It's my best friend and doctor.
I'm a senior swimming every morning for 35 minutes right now. Today was day 34! I can't wait to see what changes are coming up in month #2
Would you mind telling why you are swimming? And has anything changed that would be much appreciated
How was the journey? Did u lose weight or gaint muscle? Improve cardio?
Thanks 😊

Doing anything that’s good for your health is proven to improve your mental health not just swimming.
Almost all cardiovascular exercises have this effect, not just swimming.

It’s common sense
It has been 1 week i started swimming and it really helps me with stress and overthinking.
I’m 49 yo and I swim 6-7 times/ week for 1800-2000m each day 4 styles. And I also hit the gym 3x per week. Swimming is a great overall exercise!

just shower after bro 💀 you have products that help with dry skin and stuff
