Let's look at the data about the effect of swimming to lose weight! Staying in water at 14℃ for 1 min consumes the equivalent of 100 calories, isn't it great? Swimming can make the muscles of the whole body get good exercise. In addition, because the density (in other words, resistance) and heat transfer performance of water are greater than that of air, at the same temperature, the heat dissipation speed of human body in water is much faster than that in air, which can effectively consume heat, so human body consumes more energy in water than on land.
However, swimming to lose weight is not an overnight event. For MM who wants to achieve a good weight loss effect by swimming, you should also ensure that you swim 3-4 times a week, and each swimming should not be shorter than 40 minutes, otherwise even the most efficient swimming may not satisfy you!
