I heard swimming is one of the best sports for cardiovascular exercises and really good for building your physique is this true?

If it is i might swim more often.

Swimming is a great cardiovascular workout...if you do it properly. Try doing a search on swim drills and workouts. I used to swim with a masters club and it was an awesome workout. I never thought you could actually sweat in a pool, but if you workout hard enough, you certainly do.
