Starting to swim - how long to see results?

I used to love swimming. Wasn’t a professional or anything but used to swim in my local pool.

I’ve just started again this week going for 30 mins and doing a very slow breaststroke. Am I likely to see results if I keep this up? Or will it not make much difference?

I’ve been three times this week and hoping to do that for the next six weeks or so.

Id say 50 mins as fast as you can without stopping 3x a week got me really fit. Was also walking the dogs every day.

Keep doing it but try some strength workouts too. Twice a week and two swims a week and you will see a difference after about six weeks.
