Hi all,
My question is twofold:
1) What is the main reason for you to swim? Is it for fun? Exercise? Competitions? Losing weight?
2) What kind of swimwear do you wear for that purpose?

I don't even remember when I started swimming, but when I started swimming on a team, it was because a coach saw me swimming and asked me if I wanted to join. So I joined, and I loved swimming so much! I swim because I just find it so fun. Swimming is just like natural to me. Also, I like to swim because my friends do, and because I love winning races.

I wear the matching swimsuits that my whole team wears. It has a pretty green design on it, and it's a one-piece suit. You swim in it very well! =D

Well the question that you have asked varies from poeple to poeple.Different poeple will give different opinions.But let me tell you the reason why do I swim.I swim because it's a passion.Since I love swimming it's a passion.Along the way it also keeps the body fit.And compitions ? hah ! when i'am doing something with great interest I need to know it's output also.therefore I compete and the amount of respect that you get and the glory which is obtained after getting the desired results, the feeling is just out of this world.And also I just love killing myself what I mean to say is that I love challenges It keeps me active.It's amazing to see someone infront of who has lost the challenge from you.The sadness on that person's face makes you the ruler forever.So for me it's not just a hobbie it's my life because" life's a challenge make it large ".
Also,the costumes from speedo are one number one spot.I would recommend the speedo endurence costumes because they are one of the most durable also they donot wear out for long time.A speedo sillicon cap and speedo anti -fog googles .

1. Swimming is one of the very few sports that I can actually do well! I swim as a way of almost meditating. I enjoy being by myself, testing how far I can go, and letting go of everything. It is a great stress release and great exercise. You can really get into a zone with swimming.
2. I just wear a typical swim suit and cap.

I swim because of the friendships I made on the team, I swim because of the close meets, the rivalries, hairy legs, and words of wisdom from coaches. I swim for the bus rides to meets over 2 hours away, I swim for the feeling you get after winning a big race or beating your best time. I swim for the feeling you get when you see the other team's girls in tears because your team finally broke their obnoxious winning record.....
I swim for the memories...
I like Nike or speedo suits for practice, but nothing beats a fast-skin for racing.

I swim because I like it and it is fun, but I'm extremely competitive. I almost never swim without a scheduled practice time with my swim team. I usually wear Speedo (brand) Racing and Drag Suits.

I swim because it balances my life. I am a cometetive swimmer and it is something that never fails me. I feel immense comfort and relief when I am in water. Swimming is my chance to prove myself and have the most fun at the same time. I have all the time in the world just to think when I swim. I love it. As said by
Friedrich Nietzsche, What does not destroy me, makes me stong. Swimming is my passion, it makes me move, live, think.
No one ever trains for second place.
2) Women's speedo race suits, cap, womens speedo race goggles.

the main reson that i like to swim is because it is sooooooooooo much fun, you get to meet new friends and have a blast at meets and just hang out all while competing....i do it for the fun and the excitement of the sport...i like the exercise that i get from doing laps during practise...the competitions are soooooooo much fun, because you get to compete with people that you dont even know....and it does help you to lose weight...when in practise or competion i wear a dragsuit (like normal swim shorts) with jammers underneath, but in meets i just wear the jammers...hope this helps...
