Swimming to Cut?

[amonroe]

Has anyone here experimented with swimming as a method of cutting? I've heard that it's a great way to get in shape without losing too much muscle...if anyone's tried it, please let me know your thoughts!

THANKS!

Swimming is a great form of nonimpact aerobics basically - I used to swim 30 laps every day to deal w/ stress from my classes in college - definitely helped me cut. To me it felt like a great type of steadystate cardio, with the addition of some resistance while doing it.

I have always enjoyed swimming, and I think it is a great way to exercise. No pain to the joints, and very relaxing.

I get it in once a week. Going to try to up it to twice. Great shoulder workout and a method of burning calories.
