      I work as a lifeguard in a swimming pool, and every day I meet friends who want to lose weight through swimming. They swam several thousand or even tens of thousands of meters at a time and were exhausted, but they did not lose weight. Some people therefore assert that swimming cannot lose weight.

      In fact, swimming can effectively lose weight. Based on practice, I summarize the secrets of swimming to lose weight as follows: swim short to find a sense of floating, and get out of the water frequently to find a sense of gravity.

      The specific operation is as follows: after entering the water, you should immediately find the comfort of floating body. elderly Or if you are weak, you can use the smallest movements to maintain floating motion, and you can water ski with two hands. Breathe evenly, close your eyes as if you are about to enter Dream It doesn't matter if you wake up suddenly or open your eyes. When you feel more comfortable and relaxed than lying in bed, you can get out of the water immediately. When you get out of the water, move slowly, feel the weight of your body in the water, and compare the feeling of floating in the water with the feeling of gravity supporting your body on land. Some people are physically strong and find it difficult to appreciate this feeling. Then swim a certain distance with a low frequency of movement, so as not to speed up the heartbeat, and then get out of the water to feel it. Wait until the feeling of gravity and fatigue subsides before returning to the water. Do not dive into the water, as this will easily eliminate the feelings that have arisen.

      If you use this method to lose weight and persist for a few days, the original bulging feeling in the belly will disappear, and the abdomen will feel relaxed, but the weight loss will be very small. If you persist for three to five months, exercise a little restraint in your diet, and supplement it with walking one to two kilometers a day, your weight will naturally come down slowly. Friends who want to lose weight but don’t want to go on a diet may wish to give it a try.
