One of the many things that makes swimming so great is that it is so much cheaper than most other sports, where a ton of equipment is needed. All you need to start out is: a decent swimsuit a swim cap and a good pair of goggles if your eyes are sensitive. As you start training more and want to get stronger and better toned you can either purchase or borrow: a kickboard pull-buoy a pair of flippers and paddles that will strengthen your legs and arms during the kick and pull sets. - By Bronwyn Dedekind (former South African swimmer)
