Summer Swimming

June 30, 2008

Summer is here and everyone wants to have fun, enjoy the weather, and feel great in their swimsuit.  Splashing around is one way you can accomplish all three of these things.  In addition to the aerobic benefits, muscle toning, and pleasantry of cooling off, swimming is an incredible way to help you meet your fitness goals. 

For an average, 150 lb adult, a leisurely swim can burn over 400 calories an hour!  One willing to get a little more serious and swim the freestyle at a moderate pace can burn over 600 calories an hour.  At that rate and and with no dietary changes, an average person can shed almost 2.5 lbs a month by swimming for one hour three times a week!  And the really great news is that swimming is fun, relaxing, and enjoyable.  You can do it with your friends, family, or by yourself, morning, day or night. 

Swimming can really work up an appetite and our Lean1 is the best way to satisfy your hunger while getting the incredibly well-balanced nutrition of lean proteins, powerful antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, daily fiber, organic fruits and vegetables, and natural energizers.  So go ahead, take a splash this summer and then treat yourself to a deliciousness of a Lean1 shake.
