Redpill me on swimming

>take multiple showers after swimming if you swim for more than 2hours at a time otherwise you and everything you own will smell like it
Use shower gel/foam
>forget about moisturised hair
Use a conditioner
>take a swimming class otherwise there's no point
lol

>Use shower gel/foam
if you've swam as long as i have you know that no matter what you use theres a chemical smell that lingers and sometimes you cant take a shower immeadiately
>Use a conditioner
again, long time swimmer here and hair damage adds up over the years bucko
>taking a swim class
the faster you swim the more calories burned not to mention that skinny ottermode lanklets brutally mog you while youre doggypaddling they're swimming 500s on the 2 minute

you cant be a bulky bear-mode nigga and swim, thats not how it works famalam

It dries your hair a bit i swam without a cap for a few years when i did comp swimming but i liked mine better when it was dry

>swimming with a cap
bruh moment

>Is it better or worse than going to the gym?
i mean why would you compare the two ? basically it depends on your goal
Swimming is a great full body sport for cardio and health, you will build little muscle
Weightlifting is what it is, you go there to build your physique

i used to be on my schools swim team and i swam most of my childhood

swimming is probably the single most efficient cardio you can do (assuming you're actually doing the right technique and not just flailing around like a retard). it's also incredibly difficult to injure yourself, although again, bad form can lead to some shoulder problems if youre just brute forcing your way in

its also good for lung expansion and breath control as the most efficient swimmers will be able to hold their breaths for several strokes (sounds harder than it is).

if youre a noob watch some videos on form. do not be embarrassed by being winded by a single lap or being lapped by old people. it takes practice and is pretty hard.

>not ocean swimming

>going on vacation in July

How and where do i learn to swim without people finding out? Do i pay some for some private lessons?

Not a nigger.

>Less joint pain
Lol. My gf was Olympian level swimmer and her shoulders and knees are completely fucked

>gym for 3 days, swim for 7, all for ottermode

Good swimmers are fucking jacked and are 100000x more attractive than retarded gym rats with 0 athletic ability

Fast and lay in the sun.
