Can swimming increase muscles?
Yes;

By swimming, we can exercise many muscle groups. When it comes to the role of swimming, there are still many. It is not only beneficial to our health, but also can improve our cardiopulmonary function and coordinate the flexibility of the body. As a fitness method, swimming is also used to lose fat or gain muscle.

So why can swimming be coordinated with our muscle groups? The reason is that when you are in the water, the resistance of the water is great. In the process of swimming, you need to break through layers of resistance to move forward. When swimming, under the resistance of water, the swinging of all parts of the body needs more strength, which consumes a lot of body heat and far exceeds many land sports. At the same time, it can effectively strengthen a set of muscle group training in different parts of the body, such as waist, abdomen, legs, arms and so on.
