At least 1/2 hour pr day. Breast stroke is a great all around workout.

you need to swim as long as it will take per day to burn more calories than you eat. the only way to lose weight is to either eat less or exercise more. of the strokes that are probably best things like freestyle, back stroke, you can burn 250 - 400 calories in half hour depending on how vigorous the workout.

For me butterfly is the best stroke if you want to 'notice' a difference.
