Plan on doing 2 1/2 hours of swimming a week. Or mix in swimming with other cardio workouts. You can set your own pace, going as fast as you like. Most people swim laps in a pool. If you swim in an ocean or lake, make sure you know how to stay safe in open water with currents. If you don't already know how to swim, there are classes at community pools, gyms, and YMCAs or YWCAs. It's good to know how to swim, for safety's sake, even if you aren't planning to make swimming your main workout.
