I heard some where way back that if you are doing a exercise like swimming for the aerobic benifit. If you stop for more then 15 seconds ..say to talk to someone..you lose the benifit from the aerobic part of workout.. Any one heard about this?

Lap swimmers are the worst. Most don't swim far enough or smart enough to get any benefit.
The key to swimming is stopping. Yes, stopping.
Many lap swimmers go the same speed for an hour, never get faster or better. Don't loose weight.
By stopping and starting again, masters are doing interval swimming. And interval swimming releases natural HGH, Human Growth Hormone. Thats what makes us better, and lets us look younger.:D
