Reply from Grace, Age 15 - 08/05/04 - IP#: 64.33.147.xxx Swimming won't exactly help you lose weight. It is a resistance thing that helps you build muscles. If you swim frequently i'm sure you will lose weight because as you gain muscle you will lose weight. I am on a swim team and from Oct.-Feb. we swim 2 days a week for 2 hrs. plus Saturdays at our meets. If you do decide to swim to get exercise, keep in mind that it will change your body. After 10 years of swimming I have extremely broad shoulders for my height (5'6).

Reply from meghan, Age 14 - 08/04/04 - IP#: 66.30.74.xxx swimming is a very good way to lose weight because its similar to running yet you are pushing the weiight of the water which helps build your muscles. and remeber muscle weighs more then fat and muscle can burn the fat

Reply from sarah, Age 13 - 08/04/04 - IP#: 24.225.224.xxx swimming gives you good muscles but i doesnt really help loose weight....it keeps you balanced though. if you swim and don't eat any junk food at all it probably will help you.
