I swim on rest days. I post in the swim threads, but they never get bumped. Whereas at least /run/ general gets a decent number of replies.
I get the feeling Veeky Forums is full of dyels and fatties who can't swim and are afraid to expose their bodies in public

Used to compete but it was just too time consuming in the end

no its cus its additionally time-consuming in relation to running or the gym and having access to a pool is lower than a gym

Swimmers always look off somehow.. something about the legs just being limp basically, zero hip involvement in anything.

Its fun and good for you, but shouldnt be relied on on its own

i'm not a lifter i'm a runner/calisthenics guy. gf broke her ankle so we'll start swimming as soon as she's able to.

something i should know? i grew up with a big pool so i'm kind of good at swimming but still far from expert. will it be good enough?

keep your head down

i used to swim on my off days but im just too sore these days. i still go diving or surfing most weekends so i work out my swimming muscles but yeah

Swim three times a week, last some gains but in the long term. It's not about making gains. It's about living a healthy balanced lifestyle

How do I start properly swimming? Is there a guide for form and slightly increasing goals like the couch to 5k one? I wanna be able to pass the lifeguard exam by spring but I've never actually swam outside of recreation.
