Swimming Boosts Respiratory Health

Swimming provides several benefits for respiratory organ health. It can help improve lung capacity and strengthen respiratory muscles in people with asthma by involving controlled breathing. For asthma sufferers, swimming is preferable to other activities as it is less strenuous than running or aerobics but still provides cardiovascular benefits. Regular swimming also makes the respiratory system stronger overall and allows asthma sufferers to practice breathing techniques. Research also indicates swimmers tend to have healthier lungs than other athletes.

Benefits of Swimming for Respiratory Organ Health

Thesis
Previously, swimming was the movement of changing places regularly in water
quickly using the hands and feet. Swimming is a branch of aquatic sport, where
the speed of leg and hand movement is the main key to keeping the body afloat.
The benefits of swimming are quite varied, to the point that this sport has
become one of the most popular sports throughout the world. One of the
benefits of swimming is for human respiratory organs. Now let’s look at the
benefits of swimming for human breathing.

Argument
First, for someone who has a history of asthma. Asthma is a health disorder in
the form of chronic inflammation that occurs in the airways. This condition is
characterized by varied and recurring symptoms, such as airway obstruction
which causes wheezing or wheezing, heavy chest coughing and shortness of
breath. Swimming is also a suitable sport for asthma sufferers. This is because
swimming is part of breathing exercises. Swimming can improve human lung
capacity. Swimming involves regular, controlled breathing, helping to train and
strengthen the respiratory muscles. This can increase lung capacity and the
efficiency of oxygen exchange in the body.

Second, swimming definitely involves respiratory function. Swimming is


believed to make a person’s respiratory system stronger. Many asthma sufferers
are advised to diligently do this exercise, so that breathing becomes healthier,
smoother, and inhales become longer. However, the disinfectant that is usually
found in swimming pool water (chlorine) is considered not good for asthma
sufferers, so asthma sufferers are strongly advised to swim in pools that do not
contain chlorine. That way, this exercise is very good if done regularly by
asthma sufferers to practice breathing.

Third, swimming is good for heart and lung health. Even though it’s not as
heavy as running or aerobics, the benefits of swimming are equivalent to other
cardio sports. This type of exercise will help improve oxygen and blood flow so
it is good for heart and lung health. This is supported by research which shows
that swimmers tend to have healthier lungs than other athletes.
Lastly, swimming regularly will help you maintain your health, especially
exercising muscles that can weaken with age.

Reiteration
Of the benefits already mentioned, swimming has many benefits for the human
respiratory organs. The benefits of swimming are something that would be a
shame to miss. Therefore, there is no harm in regularly doing swimming sports
2-3 times a week. So if we want healthier respiratory organs, we can do this by
regularly swimming, at least once a week.
