Swimming works your whole body, improving cardiovascular conditioning, muscle strength, endurance, posture, and flexibility all at the same time. Your cardiovascular system in particular benefits because swimming improves your body’s use of oxygen without overworking your heart.
For our next bonus point, I challenge you to a swim! Get a swim in by March 31st and earn another bonus point!
Don't have a pool at your own gym? There's lots of resources (plus swim classes) within your own area:
DC Pools - DC residents can actually swim for free
Arlington Pools - Arlington residents swim for $5/drop-in or $85 for a 20-class pass
Fairfax County Pools
Let me know if you go!
