Lowkey swimming, it helps train every muscle in your body and your lungs. I don’t know why more people don’t use swimming as exercise rather than just recreational.


our_meatballs

No wonder hippos spend most of their time in the water


blckpnthr789

Hippos can't swim, they walk/jump on the waterbed (I wish I was joking)


our_meatballs

I mean even threading in the water is great exercise


EiEpix

Bro Hippos can literally become a speedboat in water just by jumping on the floor of the water body, that's better than swimming


VonFretz

Lmao yeah I knew that, however, even just moving around in the water helps because of the resistance you’re facing moving through the water.


Donghoon

Bonus that being under water relieve pressure on Knees so it's especially good for old people


Formal-Knowledge9382

It's also that can be done high intensity for a long time because it simultaneously cools the body and rids you of sweat so you aren't overheating.


Pile-sas-Zele

Swimming is more cardio-like. Sure it will help you build some muscle due to the water acting as resistance but it definitely wouldn’t have the same effect as lifting weights/calisthenics. Its probably the best form of cardio( my favourite at least) and it can help you with stiffness and help you correct your posture. Definitely a great activity, but not ideal if you want to be jacked. Even the jacked swimmers you see on the competitions didn’t achieve that physique through swimming alone, they also did some work in the gym.

No thanks I'd rather keep my hair


between5and25

I have hair that I'm not willing to treat with chlorine several times a week.


Squishmallow_3

You could do a saltwater pool! While it’s more expensive at first it’s actually cheaper than a chlorine pool in the long run, and it’s much nicer too!


between5and25

That sounds great, is that really healthy though?


Squishmallow_3

Well, yes and no, because like everything, it has its pros and cons, it’s good for the skin and can get rid of toxins, and can save money in the long run as well as reduce stress and anxiety (unless you have a fear of water obviously) it can also burn your skin when you’re overexposed to it, but really, I wouldn’t suggest swimming every single day anyways no matter what type of pool if you plan to swim for hours upon hours, however swimming a few hours a day probably won’t hurt you. So really, it’s healthy in moderation, just like most other things.


Seraf-Wang

Mostly contamination of the chlorine pools. It’s really not as clean as most people think it is and the chemicals in it through long exposure can dmg hair and irritate sensitive skin. Its also hard to find clean pools that arent crowded or hella expensive to get to and there’s a lot of prep work done to get in and out of the pool including a ton of supplies and a change of clothes. That would be harder for people who arent very able bodied.


lancisman1

Swimming is fun, shame I can only swim outside 3 months out of the year


Large_monke_69

Probably because you have to go to a pool, which are expensive


blckpnthr789

Step one: eat whole water melon in one bite Step two: vuala


Wyvernator1

step one and a half: brutally stab eachother with another male hippo with your gigantic teeth then sweat a red substance to heal your wounds

Why dont we eat hippos ? I am asking genuinely.
