Does swimming help slim down your legs?

Maintaining a graceful figure is something that everyone dreams of, but in life many things cannot go as we wish. Some women are not fat, but their thighs are relatively thick, so they need to lose weight locally. Among the local weight loss exercises, swimming is also a good effect for slimming legs, because it can exercise the coordination of the limbs and can effectively burn fat in the limbs and thigh roots.

When swimming, people usually use the buoyancy of water to lie prone or supine in the water, relax and stretch the whole body, so that the body can develop comprehensively, symmetrically and harmoniously, and the muscle lines can be smooth. Exercising in water reduces the impact of the ground on bones during ground exercise, lowers the chance of bone aging and makes bone joints less likely to deform. The resistance of water can increase a person's exercise intensity, but this intensity is different from equipment training on land. It is very gentle and the intensity of training can be easily controlled within aerobic level.
