Swimming for just 30 minutes can burn more than 300 calories and target pretty much every muscle in your body – no wonder A-listers like Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts are fans!
To shape up using the pool, here’s how to soup up your swim session. This training plan will help you burn calories and tone up in less than half an hour. Go for gold!
