Water, water, water! How nice is it that water can offer such intense and enjoyable workouts. To me, water aerobics is defined as a?non-weight bearing (easy on the joints)?resistance and aerobic exercise performed in shallow water.?It has since evolved from just walking or jogging?forward and backward in the water to jumping jacks and popular?cross-country skiing movements.
Water equipment?has?also?become more popular.?Water weights,?floating belts, and other useful equipment are used to increase water resistance as well as help with flotation and balance.?Water aerobics?can be performed just about anywhere; from health and fitness clubs to public or private swimming pools to even shallow lakes. All you really need is the?motivation and dedication to splash around a little bit (warm weather wouldn?t hurt either).
