Swimming Gala date:
Swimming Pool Bognor Regis
Swimming is a great form of exercise for the whole body. The swimming pool provides a great environment for warming up or cooling down after a gym workout but is also a very effective exercise in its own right. The water provides additional resistance for your muscle groups to work against and supports some of your body weight reducing the strain on your joints.
A gentle swim can burn over 200 Kcal in half an hour and regular weekly swimming can lead to improved sleep patterns and lower stress levels.
