Is Swimming as good as jogging?

[markeaton]

I wasn't sure which forum to post. Is swimming as good as jogging (or maybe HIIT) regarding a "good" aerobic workout?

It depends on how intense your swimming is. You could definitely do HIIT for swimming laps - just be sure you're going as fast and hard as you can (which can sometimes be difficult to judge in a pool).

What Freddy said!

You will get more out of a workout if you totally dig it. Also, your chances of sticking with it are considerably higher the more you like doing it.
