Because swimming is a full-body exercise, in the process of swimming will use all kinds of physical strength of the body, it is relatively large consumption of physical energy. And because the thermal conductivity of the water is greater than our daily air 24 times, the water temperature will generally be lower than the temperature, which will be greater heat consumption.
2、can effectively skin care
In the process of swimming, because the whole body muscle groups need to work together to exercise, and the body in the water movement consumes more energy than on land. Through the buoyancy of the water, resistance and pressure, etc. With the human body rowing to produce a very strong phase resistance, can play a certain degree of massage on the skin, so that the skin is fairer and more delicate.
3, can avoid lower limbs and waist sports injury
Because swimming is carried out in the water, in the process of swimming, part of the body is borne by the buoyancy of the water, we can exercise at the same time more effectively to avoid lower limb and waist sports injuries, will not damage the joints and bones of the lower limbs.

This swimming method is a way created by australian wyllys in 1850. It is carried out by placing the hands on the surface of the water in the posture of free forward movement, also similar to butterfly. After that, it was improved and combined with the use of the body's chest force and then with the free alternation of hands in the water to row forward, and the two legs side by side to kick the water swimming style, with breathing to complete.

Breaststroke, as the name suggests, is easily associated with a stance of human being imitating the swimming action of a frog in the water, and it is also the longest time and a kind of swimming stroke used by many people in daily life. In the process of breaststroke, swimmers can better observe whether there are obstacles in front of them, and can effectively avoid hitting undesirable obstacles. Since breaststroke is considered slow among several ways of swimming, in the past freestyle competition, breaststroke has always been the most backward way of swimming speed, if it is a beginner, you can get a better technical refinement in this way. But in recent years after the improved breaststroke technique, its speed has been slowly achieved to increase and improve.
3、backstroke
Firstly, the chest and abdomen of the body are kept parallel to the water surface, and the face is exposed to the water surface. In the process of rowing, make the body turn flexibly on both sides in the water. Use every part of the body. And the speed of rotation should be fast, so that you keep yourself more in the side position, unlike other swimming parties that are lying flat. By using the power of the hands to quickly paddle out of the water, while the shoulders will also leave the water early. Then use the power of the ankle joints of the legs to hit the legs, in the water with the body together with the stroke. In the occurrence of side lying fast, together with breathing, etc.

Usually can be seen only in some professional athletes swimming pool. It can be presented to us through the athletes in the water with a variety of body movements, with music, showing the beautiful movements in the water, presenting an artistic enjoyment to everyone.
5、butterfly stroke
Butterfly stroke was first used by german swimmers in 1926. Its basic action is mainly to keep the body parallel to the water surface in the water, by using the palms of both arms to stroke under the side, when the elbows and small arms are generally at a good angle, first from the outside to the inside of the stroke, and then from the back to push the water outward all the time, with the legs together while making waves up and down. The thighs sink, the knees should be slightly bent, and the thighs are lifted in time to perform the action continuously while hitting the water. Butterfly swimming is generally carried out through the 1:2 matching action between the arms and legs, that is, the arms paddle 1 time, the legs hit the water 2 times, hit the first leg when the arms paddle, and hit the second leg when the arms paddle to the rear, together with lifting the head and inhaling at the same time.
