July 21, 2006, Newsletter Issue #25: Strokes For Strength

Tip of the Week

Want to learn about fitness swimming? If you go to a gym with the intentions of working many muscles and getting a cardio workout, you’ll have to work extra hard. To accomplish this task, you will probably have to hit a number of different targeting machines. Plus, you will likely have to make time on the treadmill or teack. However, there is a way you can work all of your muscles, plus get cardio with one stroke—literally. Try swimming.

Swimming for fitness can really give you a total workout just by using strokes (like the breaststroke or the backstroke). These strokes can work muscles like:

• Abdominal
• Biceps
• Triceps
• Gluteals
• Hamstrings
• Quadriceps

*Swimming can also lower your blood pressure—how’s that for a total body workout?
