I usually run for exercise, but I am thinking of incorporating swimming several times a week into my workout schedule. For anyone who swims, do you find that swimming is a good form of exercise--for both muscle definition and a calorie-burning workout? Also, for how long do you swim, and how should I feel while swimming (out of breath, or should I swim at a medium to slow pace)
Any general swimming techniques, tips, and personal experiences would be helpful! And I want to know why swimming is not generally recommended as an exercise to prevent osteoporosis.
Maybe the people with wider shoulders and narrower hips naturally got to swimming. When I go to the kids meets, there is all kinds of body shapes, even in the top heats. I think the elite work-out so much that their bodyfat is fairly low, and with that leanest comes the narrower hips.
