Here are a few of the benefits……
Muscle toning. As water is 12 times as dense as air, swimming is a far more effective way of toning your muscles than any other form of cardiovascular exercise that you can do on land. When you swim you get the cardio part of your workout while also working on an even body tone.
Forces you to work on your breathing. There is a far higher level of moisture present in the air when you’re at a swimming pool in comparison to the dry air that you’ll experience at a gym. The moisture in the air makes it far easier to breath, perfect for those that suffer with asthma and find cardio in the gym or in the park that bit too hard on their lungs.
Work out for longer with less stress on your body. As water has the handy habit of supporting your bodyweight, it serves as a great way for people with injuries or those suffering from obesity to get a good workout, without risk of over doing it and causing further physical issues.
Foam rolling is to do with the mobility of the fascia. Fascia is a fibrous layer of connective tissue that surrounds all of the muscles in our body. In layman’s terms it means it can help with our flexibility, circulation and break down any lactic acid we have in our muscles, meaning it is also great for muscular injury’s and rehabilitation. They can be used on various muscles throughout the body however most commonly used on the legs for runners.
