Swimming without other exercise?

If I only swim but don't do any other exercises, what will I be missing? Not much, I suppose? I can still have a good physique and it sure does more to my health than if running is my only exercise? Comments?

  • This is an interesting topic to me. I spent about 8 years doing nothing but swimming. During this time everything other than my swimming went to pot, agility, speed, coordination, etc. I also got fat, but hard to pin that on swimming versus the lard diet I was on at the time. I think doing a single sport in general is pretty pointless, not to mention boring.
