swimming because you use your arms legs and abs..the 3 main things and it also improves your respiratory system too w. your lungs and your breathign and everything so swimming is the total body workout..AND its easy on your joints

If your looking for somthing that involves contact and a little more hand eye skill. Try Rugby fastest sport on land. Rugby players are amongst the healthiest, strongest and toughest athletes on the planet. From there theres martial arts. Judo would have to be the best for a all around work out strength, cardio, flexability and if you do it regularily you won't need anythin else, plus it will teach dicipline self confidence as well as self defence.
If you are looking for somthing that will give you an all around work out, cardio, resperatory system, muscles etc... Than yes swimming is great but it will not build alot of strength. Add a little weight training with it and some yoga for flexability and you'll be in awesome shape.

I'd have to agree that swimming is it. Just think about it: you're using both arms and legs to propel yourself. Your whole body gets into it. Can you honestly think of any major muscle group that isn't used in swimming? I can't.
One friend said she thought swimming was the best form of exercise because it was the only one where you don't get sweaty!

yeah i would have to say swimming in my opinion. i used to be a pretty good runner, a good half-marathoner, and i once thought i could do pretty well in the pool. ha. i was so tired after about 4 laps. swimming works everything.

Swimming is good! Tennis is good. Volley Ball is good.
