Hot summer sweat. Increasing weight. Don't wanna go gymming? Indulge in swimming!

Fashion designer Meera Mittal hums this tune -- because she prefers swimming over any other fitness programme.

She says, "I really enjoy it. No sweating and excessive fatigue as I have experienced when working out at the gym. I am out in the open and not in an air-conditioned environment."

However, it's not like she directly took up swimming. First, she tried the gym.

"My gym membership cost me Rs 23,000 for a year, which I eventually wasted. I did not enjoy the activity and ended up bunking a lot!"

She did not lose any weight . So, Meera literally wasted Rs 23,000. Besides, according to her, swimming is relatively easy on the joints and muscles and also keeps one fit and flexible.

Meera absolutely loves swimming and her never ending list of advantages says it all. "It also helps me relieve stress. It's more about learning and perfecting a skill as opposed to simply repeating movements on a machine. I'm sure you can tell I hate working out at the gym."

Yeah, that's evident!
