I read somewhere (I can't recall it now) that swimming does not help much with weight loss, and that it doesn't burn as many calories as other sports (such as running). Is this actually true?
I’ve always found those “Calories Burned During Exercise” charts to be interesting works of fiction.
The NutriStrategy site, reports 949 calories burned by a 190 pound person swimming one hour of butterfly! I wonder who they got to volunteer to swim an hour of butterfly to come up with that number??:)
