	Swimming is a good form of exercise
		Resistance swimming can be done either against a stream of water set in motion by a (usually) self-contained mechanical device (often termed a swimming machine) or by holding the swimmer stationary by means of elastic attachments.
		In competitive swimming, excessive leg muscles can be seen as a disadvantage as they consume more oxygen, which would be needed for the muscles in the arms, although this depends on the swimming style.
		The swimming position on the breast allows full flexibility of the arm in the water, as compared to the backstroke, where the hands cannot be moved easily along the back of the spine.
