Yeah swimming is great for breath control and it's good cardio for the whole body, the only reason I quit is because I tend to get bored just doing lengths, the most I ever did of a 25 metre pool was 5000 lol but normally I would only do about 100, I guess it's the same problem as training alone, I just got bored. Still interested in swimming though, I was thinking on taking up something like open water swimming for a challenge lol.
