Subscribing to this thread. Swimming as primary is exactly what I've been researching. 🙏

Reading this thread on Swimming as primary hits close to home. Dad of 2 checking in — I started at 293 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.

9 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 68 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.

If you are on the fence about Swimming as primary — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️

Moderator note: Great discussion, everyone. Just a reminder to keep things civil and evidence-based.

Thread quality is excellent — keep it up. 👍

Relevant to Swimming as primary cardio on — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 8.4% → 5.5%, triglycerides 225 → 95 mg/dL, hsCRP 8.0 → 1.3 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 17 months.

The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.
