When i turned 50 I turned to swimming to keep moving after rheumatoid arthritis began to take its toll on my regular weights and martial arts routine. Swimming in ice cold water or the ocean in the winter has improved my health & overall joint pain immensely. Swimming can also be a great zen gateway for learning to meditate as it can focus your breathing when that ice cold burn hits you during the swim.
Yes! That's so awesome to hear. I've become a river rat, and swim in rivers with my under water mp3 player, and just rock out. It's the purest form of meditation I know. I go for hours. Keep it going!
I had basically no visible muscle through middle school, despite being one of the top in my grade for cross country. Then, in 7th grade, I join a winter swimming team with the high school. I knew so little about competitive swimming they basically have to teach me how to swim all over again. I wasn't going too well, and almost quit in the first 4 or so weeks. But then, I started to get the form right on stuff. Then I had rapid, daily improvement. I went from not even being able to do the butterfly to being able to do two laps consecutively in just a week. Needless to say, I go the most improved award, and when I went back to running, everyone immediately brought up how I was kinda jacked, which I hadn't really noticed. Swimming does a lot, so if any of you have spare time in the summer or winter, join a swim team or club. I could deadlift 200 at 13 with no prior attempts, all because of good ol' winter swimming. Though the water was like, 68 degrees F because the water heater was always half broken...
Hell yeah brother I've been meaning to join my local aquatic centre. The way you present information is exactly my style, thank you for putting out awesome content
ive always known how important swimming was despite never knowing how to swim or making an effort to learn, but after watchin this vid, i am beyond fascinated and determined to become an advanced swimmer one day. AMAZING work
I was born and raised on an island. Needless to say, me and my cousins were always at the beach, swimming even in treacherous waves and running in sand. We were all naturally ripped. We didn’t even try to be. Just this lifestyle made us like that. Now, I live in a big international city, I gained a ton of weight, and I’m struggling to lose it.
The Bajau people is exactly who I’ve been talking about with friends recently it amazes me that humans can achieve such superhuman feats once we develop new skills in our chosen environment 💪💪😎
Yeah swimmings always been an incredible overall body workout. I love it. I’m getting back in the pool next month. My slow gym is still rebuilding the pool. You need to learn to float first before swimming and that’s easy. Just hold your breath in the water. To tread water is when in the ocean or fresh water for sure. When floating you can enjoy it by going down and coming back up. Yeah swimming is very fulfilling and fun for sure. Thanks brother!!
I used to stand up to my neck in a pool and practice tai chi. It's a great way to test your body alignment and get used to moving slowly and with intention. Teacher Cheng Man Ching described the feeling of tai chi movement as "swimming on dry land" and having practiced for a couple of decades now, I see what he means. Got to get back to swimming
Very true at some point in my holidays we were by a lake and their wasn’t anything to do so I was swimming 3 times a day for a few days in a row my inner leg muscle where completely sore but I felt amazing
Thank you. Was a dedicated swimmer in College, Stopped after graduated. I swim every now and then. I want to get back 2 it. Currently have a broken hand, this is probably going to be great therapy to rehab my hand.
I Swam everyday for a month and by the end of it I got used to my body being heavier so when it came to my regular weight training and basketball my muscles were able to stay under stress for a lot more time / reps ( this is the only benefit I distinctly remember but there were many more)
I just discovered your content and Im loving it, cant wait to watch and learn from all your videos. I love the animations too! So beautiful do you do these yourself?
Ok. So about the sea food. In my region in settlements dated with stone age we find literally hills of river oyster shells. Of course humans settled near fresh water, cause they needed source for it. Noone dug wells back then. As for children having swimming reflex - they swam most of their existence in mother's belly. It makes sense.
No, they didn’t swim. There is no air in the womb, so they were diving. Why would they know how to behave on the surface of water if they have only ever been below that? They did not need and were not able to breathe anyway, so why would they hold their breath when submerged? And why does that reflex work much better with cold water if it comes from the warm water in the womb? It just makes no sense
Forgot to mention the butterfly stroke. Swimming the butterfly stroke builds insane whole body fitness, given the individual is performing it with decent technique to avoid swimmers shoulder. If you have muscle to do it it can be a game changer.
Swimming is great. I was taking lessons but I had to quit because the chlorine gave me an allergic reaction :( nowadays I only occasionally swim on fresh water when I get the chance
I've always loved swimming as a kid, But now that I'm almost 30 I've chosen swimming as my main exercise. All I can say is that I'm the most fit I've ever been in my life, and If I keep this up there is no reason to slowly degrade as I approach my "older" years. All that " oh im 30 now, guess i'll have bad knee's" couldn't be further from the truth.
I haven't swam in water for 20 years much to my dismay. I miss it so much. I need to face my ears and just swim tomorrow with a shirt on. Body issues, lovely right? When I was in the water, I was always more under it, than I was over it. Always crawling along the seabed floor.
no one accomplished judges someone trying to better themselves the only people who judge people are trying to improve are shallow unsuccessful people and you shouldn't care what those people think
I found your comments on an enlarged spleen interesting as I started swimming regularly a couple of years ago and I just had a physical which showed an enlarged spleen
I've never heard of any of these injuries lol. I don't doubt that they exist, but in my 7 or so years of swimming 3-6 times a week to a reasonable level as a kid/teenager I can't think of a single time anybody I swam with ever got injured doing so. The closest I can think of is myself being on and off hurt in the groin area by the breaststroke kick (never serious, it really only impacted me swimming breaststroke and only slightly lol), but then I'm unusually inflexible and I never knew anybody else have this issue. For reference, I once couldn't sit on a quad bike when I was around a friend's house. I wasn't injured in any way at the time, it just had a very wide seat and I couldn't make that angle. I was barely able to play a game of cricket without picking up some sort of minor (or sometimes major) injury, but swimming was "smooth sailing" (sorry 🤣). I guess this is why I'm so "veiny". At ~30% BF% I can easily track multiple veins all the way from my hands to my mid chest in any lighting. I never knew. Thanks. P.S. Freestyle isn't the name of a stroke. The stroke you were referencing is front crawl. Freestyle simply means "you can use any legal stroke", and obviously everybody swims front crawl.
Glad you're enjoying the Content! Feel free to suggest topics as well if there's anything you ever want to see. I keep a running list of all the suggestions.
@@moversodyssey personally the most interesting ‘topic’ and something that’s always on my mind is how can we combine the ideal combination of nutrition/recovery procedures like sauna’s and sleeping patterns so we can perform at our best daily. 😎 “Recovery tools and how to utilise them to our advantage”
the strength you need to rescue a drowning person is highly underestimated since you see in movies that if you know how to swim you can rescue someone drowning and let me tell you right now its not as easy as it seems
There are some pools that use saltwater or ionizers so there isn't a need for chlorine, but they are few and far between unfortunately. I know some people who try to protect themselves from the chlorine with a spray bottle with vitamin c in it, because it neutralizes chlorine it comes into contact with. They spray it on then put an oil like coconut oil on over it. But it's a lot of work.
True, but the rest of the adaptations mentioned are not. And there are many more adaptations I didn't list to keep the video short. Still not saying the theory is true, just that it's an intriguing concept attempting to explain a set of data points not currently well explained as a whole.
Hi, i have a problem with my knee. It hurts the most when i go upstairs and I make big steps or i ride i bike. It hurst my inner part of the knee and I Wonder If it hurts because of that i swim. I swim the most by breast style and it hurts but not that much. I would be very glad If you could answer my question.
This could certainly be swimmers knee. Taking a break from swimming for a few weeks may help. Though it could be other things as well, like valgus knee or mcl issues.
I get really bad swimmers' knee, even after about 9 months of consistent swimming (because I have to do eggbeater kick / alternating breaststroke kick for water polo). I was very sedentary as a teenager so it's hard for me to get that hip flexibility but I'm trying to strengthen and increase flexibility in the adductors and hip flexors. I find it very hard to find proper stretching exercises or training programs for treating swimmers' knee or breaststroke knee even though it should be such a common issue, I would appreciate it if anyone can recommend :)
Exercises that are forcing the muscle to contract while in the lengthened position will be most beneficial for increasing flexibility as well as pain. Exercises like Cossack squats (more of a contraction) and Seated pancakes (more of a stretch) will help improve flexibility in the adductors. Exercises like a trying to go as low as you can in the front splits and holding that position isometrically (more of a contraction), gradually going lower over time, and a couch stretch (more of a stretch) paired together should improve hip flexor flexibility.
Eddie hall built his base as an elite swimmer before he hit strong man and has a world record deadlift and arguably the strongest shoulders in the world, coincidence?
Nah, dude has a myostatin deficiency which allows him to have more muscle without the body dismatling them. That is probably part of why he was such a good athlete in swimming too.
All I'm hearing is any baby I have will be familiarized with the process of baptism until they're old enough to choose to be baptized, and they'll be swimming and sprinting.

Start by sticking to the edge. I used to workout my legs by holding the ledge. You will get braver faster than you think! A lot of things you don't need to be in the deep end for anyways
I will say, the aquatic ape hypothesis is thoroughly debunked, even though humans do coincidentally have the adaptations mentioned here. Also, the dive reflex is present in most/all mammals, not just humans.
Taken individually, many of these traits can be explained away. All taken together though, it does entice the curiosity. And while I don't outright believe the theory is true, I also don't believe academics claiming it's been debunked. I've lived long enough already to see academics dismiss theories out of hand as quackery, only to eat their words a few decades later. I doubt we will ever know, and it probably doesn't matter anyway. Just entertaining food for thought.
That's better than a pool too, you don't get the chlorine exposure. Though there are some pools now that use salt or ionizers instead of chlorine. They seem few and far between though.
@@ratkoamanovic that's why swimming in nature is always best but it's not an option for everyone. I have an outside above ground pool and I'm interested in the natural pool ionizers. I read great things about them. I'm a true believer in seasonal everything. Eat foods that grow in the season, adjust your workouts by season etc. It help to be moderate.

It is fascinating, I wonder how long it would take to begin to develop this kind of adaptation. There is no research on this that I'm aware of.
There are other, more common reasons for splenomegaly as well, such as parasitic infections and thalassemia, so you should also beware of these.
This video is perfect for this hot summer we're having. If you are going to be spending time in water, might as well make it count ❤💪
