Its the serotonin being elevated that makes you happy as with all exercises when you raise your serotonin level you feel happy swimming just has the added benefit of being more fun than most other forms of exercises.

Swimming gives you a weightless sensation. The sensation that you are floating. It is a low impact workout so it does not stress the joints. Personally I find swimming a workout boring. I'll take competition any day. I love the ability to challenge myself against not only other swimmers but also the clock and my own best times. It is invigorating.

It is just a very fun sport. When you swim you can do things more easily than you can on land such as handstands, flips, and you don't have to be standing on the ground you can float instead. A lot of people like breaststroke more than other strokes because it is very relaxing and is not a lot of work.

it makes me happy because of the bond i have with the team. And i just want to clear that breaststroke does take a lot of work too. I do breaststroke and u must have the right technique and strength for breaststroke. It is easier in breathing but it's not much easier for the stroke itself comparing to others.

it gives us a familiarization of when we were in the womb of our mothers....and subconsciously brings us joy.
