If you want to keep fit, you must go in for one kind of sport or another. Sport is an essential part of my daily life. Almost every day I do some training. In summer I go swimming and play basketball. I usually spend my winter holidays in the country where I ski and skate. All my friends go in for different kinds of sports, such as: boxing, wrestling, jumping, running.

Your Health
Swimming is great exercise. It’s healthy, fun and relaxing. Because swimming is a “low-impact” sport, most people enjoy participating in this activity without fear of injury to their bones or muscles. Jogging, which is a “ high-impact” activity, can at times be harmful. I know this from personal experience. Last year while I was jogging, I injured my right knee. I don’t go jogging any more. After a painful month of recovery, I stopped running and switched to water sports. I’m now considering joining a swimming team and competing in races.
