Description

For sample adults who had participated in swimming in the past 2 weeks (EXSWIM), EXSWIMNO reports the number of times the respondent had participated in swimming over those 2 weeks.

After the interviewer determined that a respondent participated in swimming, respondents were asked, "How many times in the past 2 weeks did you go swimming?"

Related Variables 

Respondents were also asked how many minutes on average they had spent doing swimming each time during the past 2 weeks (EXSWIMMIN) and how much their heart rate or breathing had increased while
swimming(EXSWIMBR).
