Swimming really works your muscles and helps you lose some fat. Don’t just do breastroke though! Switch it up- try all four (butterfly, backstroke, breastroke, and freestyle). If you can purchase a ten pound weight, you can do some arm lifts to do at night for 5 days a week. I would search online some good arm workouts you can use with the weights. There’s all different kinds. For swimming- don’t just do continuous laps. Do a bunch of timed 50’s so you don’t get bored. You can also search for some good, easy swim sets. Good luck!! ((check out the website!! it has all the answers you’ll need that I didn’t go into depth with!))

Both are equally good. Swimming is a great workout because the water produces resistance on all sides. I would say do what you like better. If you are enjoying your workout you are more likely to keep up with it.
