Usually athletes who undergo regular training sessions take a break from that vigorous work out sessions and heads for a swim to cool off since swimming is less stressful. In most cases people and athletes with injuries tend to make swimming a habit since it offers less impact on your body muscles and joints. A regular swimming workout, kicking workouts, water aerobics etc offers you a healthy and active work out session without the weight of your entire form pounding away on your every move. This is mainly because you tend to be in a buoyant position while in water. After a hard work out in your gym or football field or even a track, you can swim a few laps and cool down and relax while floating away in the water.
Swimming also helps you to meditate and let you mind wander while also simultaneously burn those unwanted calories gradually.
