Wonderful!! Why is swimming classed as th overall best sport for fitness n metal well being?.From a Christian point if view, Jesus Christ is classesd as The Water of Life. When we drink from that Spiritual Well of Life we will never thirst again. Water revives, 💧 water refreshes, water energises, water quenches. Natural water typifies th spiritual. The look , th movement, th intensity, th calmness, th stillness. A spiritual being is clear, glides, is effortless. God is a spirit. How water makes me feel when I swim is how I feel spiritually. The two are entwined. As natural bread is to Jesus Christ being that spiritual bread of life that sustains us. 🏊‍♂️🏊‍♀️🏊🏾

After I swim, not hungry for several hours but drink about 1 liter of water afterwards.

I just learned to swim this year at the age of 43! I finally found an exercise I love! The thing about swimming is it’s ALWAYS a new skill to improve on especially new swimmers like me. You begin to drop weight easily. After swimming I’m hungry but I’ve noticed I don’t want heavy food. I usually want a salad and LOTS of water. I also sleep better. Once you start loving to swim you don’t realize how much time you’ve been doing it lol. Once I got over my fear of deep water, my excitement increased because I’m no longer stuck in the shallow end like a kid 😂!

After leading a sedentary life for the last 15 years, I've started swimming daily for the last seven months. My BMI dropped from 41 to 30. I've lost 36Kg (5.67 stones). I'm 41 yrs old and I have again the weight from when I was 25. My resting heart rate improved. I stopped snoring and improved my sleep (I get more rest from 5 hours of sleep than before from 7-8 hours). I wake up very early in the morning at 05:00 am and don't struggle going to sleep in the evening. I get on time to work and I'm more energetic. I'm a better husband and father. Also, I'm an inspiration to my colleagues and my patients. And, most important, I've managed to avoid any more suicidal thoughts. When I feel really low, I spend more time in the swimming pool and put more energy into it. Ending with a very sore whole body is a more acceptable way of self harm, it's not permanent and it has benefits in the long run. It definitely helped me in my grieving process following a painful separation 💔

I started swimming at age 67 and I can attest to the extreme changes in my body, my energy level and my mental outlook. When I say I started at age 67 I mean I started to actually learn HOW to swim. Working on proper form has me paying attention to every part of my body and what I’m doing with it at all times. It’s a full physical AND mental workout. My psychologist daughter tells me there is scientific evidence swimming builds new neural pathways and therefore improves memory. I believe it. At 6 months I am swimming 45-60 minutes every day and I can’t wait until tomorrow when I can get back in the pool again. .

I swim 3 times a week for 42 minutes, I feel like on vacations, no worries and this time is for my self. I feel so good after swimming, feel alive and strong.

There. Is. Nothing. Like. Swimming. I always feel amazing when I am done. I get out of the pool, get in my car, and my body says, "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

I feel SO pumped after a session! It's surprising how it changes your mentality. At times it is so tough to get started. And then you think; "even if I just do a certain number of lengths today, then that is ok". What happens though is that you always end up doing more. Then I also believe that one of the great benefits is the brain engagement. You are continually analyzing your form while you swim. Completely focused on every part of your stroke, as you seek to improve.

After swimming and while I am swimming, I feel like in heaven. Only I and the water exist. Away with things that make slightly anxious because I tend to take things too serious. It sets this right. Makes me feel harmonius and meditative. If the zen state actually exists, it is located in a pool for me.

With this past year packed with extensive travel, swimming has "sunk" to the bottom of my list. I've now resumed gym workouts but this is an excellent reminder to return to this, my lifetime pleasure

I almost always feel better than before I got into the pool. Especially at the end of a day after work. I am 63 and have been loving the water since I was 7. Actually swimming in it seriously like in doing laps regularly with the standard strokes for only about the last 35 maybe 40 years. This was a really good teaching about how our bodies work.

Since I took up swimming I have seen tremendous physical and mental wellness along with a significant decrease in my blood sugar and cholesterol levels. But above all, I have noticed a tremendous feeling of euphoria, invigoration and vitality in my body throughout. Amazingly the feeling of hunger has diminished considerably as a result of eating less and losing weight fast...

After my morning swim, I feel set for the day. I feel alive, invigorated, optimistic, challenged, confident, healthy, sexy and strong. Like really, I really do.

I really love reading everyone's comments here. I moved to a beach town recently. I was never serious about swimming, but I have been wanting to get my technique down. I started watching lots of videos and trying out what I saw. I am seeing the results including better swimming, improvement of mood, improved muscle tone and I am getting over my fear of deep water. Keep it up everyone in here, and thank you Fares!

I started swimming a month ago after not swimming for 18 years, and it's really incredible that my muscles remember the feel of the water.

Swimming Makes me Stresses free cuz im always stressed but when swimming my body Just chills (I swim5 days a week and 1day of gym a week)

I've been swimming since I was a child, and I do so every opportunity I get. There is a great deal of not only mental clarity, but peacefulness in the water which helps with anxiety. There is, for me, at least- no greater relaxing or physical exercise that even compares. Or, perhaps I've met my ShangriLa in swimming.

My parents made me join a swim club at 5yrs old- remember the first day- I didn’t want to do it, my coach finally just pushed me into the pool. Decades later I’m so glad I was pushed into the pool- been swimming ever since.

My swim days within my current training cycle are my FAVORITE days. My brain loves everything and everyone on those days!

I remember finding this out when I was younger, sometimes I totally forgot why I did it, but then I always remember or come back after a while. Whenever you feel like you are just really unhealthy or terrible for any reason, you can literally just swim, and suddenly you are like an elite athlete. It's like it rejuvenates and also cleanses you in ways that literally nothing else can. I think swimming is underrated. The 'best eyesight' is attributed to a tribe that regularly swims and uses their eyes under water to swim and catch fish, makes sense. Especially once you are used to the cold, it's like this feeling of being a reptilian.

It improves breathing out of water and keeps me calm and less stressed for the day. Muscels gets a good wake up / greetings in the morning. Friendship and peace with other swimmers adds a positive motive. Thanks for the video. It is great to understand and appreciate more what we all like.👌🏊👏

After I swim my 1 km routine I feel that I did something good to my all faithful body. My torax and arms muscles are noticeably inflated. Also, it seems to me that my body got more "compact" all around. I mean, I haven't checked my weight yet, and I don't think I shed weight so far, but it does look like there is less "space" or "jello" between the skin and the muscles. A personal benefit is helping me to get more conscious about my posture strengthening my neck's muscles and helping to straighten my cervical spine. This is very important to me. I started swimming two months ago or so. I'm 62 now. Last time I did it regularly I was 29. I took me long to return, but I'm glad I did. Thank you for your channel. It's really inspiring, enlightening and motivational. All the best!

One interesting observation. After a good hard swim I'm much more resistant to the cold. I can run around in my shorts, t-shirt and flip-flops in 50° or less and not be cold. I feel invincible, I love that. Anyone else feel that way?

And the opposite is true also. On a hot sticky day I feel cool and refreshed for hours after a swim.

I feel totally zen after swimming. You're a great teacher btw!

Total zen mode after a good swim! Thanks for watching!

well I used to be in the navy and loved swimming. I was like 250 lbs. back then in the navy. Stuff has happened and I've gained a lot of weight over the last 10 years. I ruptured a disc in my back a couple years ago. The doc didn't want to do surgery on me and ended up doing a lot of rehab. Regular rehab didn't help that much so he had me start aquatic therapy. That finally got my pain under control and stays tolerable for the most part. I noticed back in November that I had gained about 50 lbs. since I hurt my back which put me up to 410. so I started to work out at a gym because no pools were open at the time cause of covid. I lost 25 lbs that month but I guess between working out and my physical job, I ended up hurting my back a bit again. Could barely walk again for a week or so. So I stopped going to the gym after that. A pool has opened back up and started a year membership yesterday. I'm leaving to head there right now and start day 1 again lol. My goal is 250 and I'm at 382 right now. Its going to feel so great getting to swim again. I've watched 2 or 3 of your videos now and I'm pumped to get started now. So i guess ill watch more of your videos after I get back.

Swimming is one of the best ….. correction! IT IS THE BEST exercise there is, PERIOD! I’ve been swimming for about two decades now and not only I feel amazing, my health is amazing but I look amazing, ten years younger. Once you try it you are hooked for life.

after swimming i feel like almost reborn...fresh ...in the now...

Very informative. Thanks so much for this. I swim freestyle a mile a day, nonstop (25m pool). It is energizing, not tiring at all. I have more energy after that 1 mile; I always feel great after swimming (physically and mentally). The body loves it, and the aesthetic benefit is the cherry on top. I'm 4'11", 98 lbs. I will swim every day till I'm 90... if I get there. 😊

At 63 I have added swimming to my life and I have never felt better! This explains why. Excellent explanation.

Just started swimming 5 years ago when I turned 50. It has helped me reduce weight, lower my BP (off my medication now for a year) as well as strengthen me to where I have taken up cycling for the last two years. Every time I finish swimming I feel like I can conquer the world!

Swimming is my favorite part of my day. I’m part of my high school swim team and for nearly the entire day, I’m just waiting for practice to start.

Thank you for sharing! We hope you are able to return to practice soon!

I started wild swimming last year. Even on the lazy days when I just kick back and float while starting up at the treetops I still come out feeling refreshed and energised. As an added bonus I don't have any eye irritation or chlorine stink like in a regular pool.

I finally returned to swimming as an old man (

Love the health benefits of swimming! Also, there are so many life lessons a young guy/girl can take from swimming in high school and college!

That is one main reason why I turned love into swimming, I feel just awesome fresh and clear mind after swim.

Swimming helps clear up my head and it gives me energy for hours after my laps. I don't recall any regret of going to the pool. It makes me feel strong.

Awesome video, as always! I appreciate your knowledge and passion for swimming. Your videos always get me stoked to hit the pool!

this is one of the first informative videos that doesn't bore me. your voice is really nice to listen to and I feel ready for a swim!

I swim thrice a week for about 35mins. I started swimming as cross training for my running. But, now, I have fallen in love with swimming. Anti gravity is the trick - brain just loves it. A bad run hurts. But there is nothing like a bad swim. 😊Happy place

YES!! "Anti gravity is the trick - brain just loves it."

After swimming I have the feeling that my lungs are twice as big and I feel very light! It’s a very good feeling... I wish I could swim every day

Another great post. I did some Biochem so you speaka my language. I'm 59 and swimming 3 times a week in the AM before work. I usually have an immediate energy boost after swimming but could use a serious nap in the afternoon. ..

I am 51 years old and started when I was 47. I was high blood pressure and only one year after, no more . I swim 1,5 km 3 times a week in 50 minutes and feel so relax and energized when my class end. Love it . Sorry my English , ok?

I love the stats. I feel good after swim practice. It’s a good tired. Also, for 5 years before I joined USMS, I suffered with silent reflux. Within 2 months of starting with the team, my reflux had pretty much gone away. Now I did take steps with my diet and supplements for digestion but I truly believe swimming had a big impact. When swimming, the entire body is functioning at optimal levels. It’s a beautiful thing.

Swimming is the best!!

First lessons at 54 - just to do a few lengths I thought. Now at 73 doing 5k UK charity swimathon. Swimming leaves me feeling loose-limbed and light, and even cures a headache or hangover. However rough I felt before swimming, I always felt good afterwards.

I have bipolar disorder and swimming has helped me tremendously.

swimming is like prayer.. is a must do event..😊

Wow, you put a lot into your videos. Love the look at physiology and the practical explanation

I'am 62 male. I swim 3 to 4 times a week anywhere from 2000 to 5000 yards depending on how I feel and what my body tells me I can do. I started in March of 2021 and only could do 400 yards .Every time I swim I feel so good mentally and physically, many of my friends keep asking if I'm lifting weights. I lost 20 pounds and I also had a heart attack in 2015. I will say that I love to eat and this has given me the ability to eat when ever I want. I'm at the point that now training to do a triathlon because I'm in such good shape. The myswimpro videos also have helped me so much with technique. I'm doing 500 yards at 10 minutes don't know if this is good, this is at a relaxed pace.

I feel amazing after swimming. I've often said that when I'm swimming I feel such clarity in mind.

I am 59 and started swimming 18 mos ago. I usually swim 2x per week around 1200 yds.....after my workout I am fatigued and hungry but also feel good. Love the scientific presentation.....brought back memories of schooling and learning the kreb cycle!
