Aquatic Fitness
Doing Workout In The Water
Water workouts are a great way to keep fit. Because of its unique physical properties, water provides the ideal environment for exercise. The natural buoyancy of water reduces weight bearing stress, allowing greater ease of movement with less strain on bones, joints, and muscles. The increased density of water creates even and fluid resistance, comfortably toning and strengthening muscles with greater balance and efficiency.
Water aerobics is the perfect answer to your fitness needs or goals because it is adaptable to all personal conditions, illnesses, injuries and post surgeries. You can target specific body areas to exercise, or combine several movements into a complete head-to-toe activity.
Water exercises are a proven way to increase your metabolism, build muscle tone and strength, improving balance, coordination and range of motion, and relieve tension — all with pain-free, low impact movements.
Plus, both non-swimmers and swimmers can perform water exercises because you choose your water depth.
Is there anyone who wouldn't be interested in an exercise program that:
Gives the benefit of a two-hour workout in thirty minutes?
Burns twice the calories of land exercises?
Is painless and doesn't make you sore?
Is fun and provides numerous health improvements?
Is easy to understand, apply, and individualize?
Doesn't get your hair wet or make you sweat?
