Why Swimming is the Best Sport | Your Sport

Swimming is the best sport out there. Or at least according to our "unbiased" Swimming Olympians. It moves every muscle in your body, it's intense and you are allowed to eat whatever you want. What else do you need?

"And you're allowed to eat whatever you want"
Yep, that's what I tell myself

[angelaivana]

"...and you can eat whatever you want"

THAT IS SO TRUE

[lukasschrage]

You are right absolutely! Swimming is so diverse and gives so much pleasure. I am so glad that I exercise this sport. Greetings from Germany. :D

I've been swimming for years, and all of this is true! The drive and determination is all that you got once you dive in

[GregoryGranovski]

I kind of agree with this because I'm a competitive swimmer and unlike many other sports, you are working basically every single muscle in your body.

True Ryan, if your a swimmer, you can just eat 10, 000 calories a day without getting fat

Out of the 3 Olympic sports that I exercise, Track, gymnastics and swimming, Swimming is 100% the best sport and has the highest intensity in everything you do. So honored to exercise this sport.

I thought peeing was the best? No? Only in Rio?

I'm a diver, and the swim coach made me swim a race once (for fun) and halfway through I thought I was going to die because my goggles came off so I'll pass😂😂😂😂

[patrickwu]

As much as I love swimming, I despise the title because NO sport is "the best". Everything is relative.

What do you want for Christmas?

New shorts

Swimming is the best sport because you can barley hear the crowd cheering, you can barley hear anything execpt the water splashing, that way it’s easier to focus and get in the zone, and you don’t get as distracted while competing. Thats why i like it at least.
