Water Exercise: Spa & Pool Exercise Light Weight Equipment
Low impact exercise can be done in your spa or pool. Exercising with light weight equipment offers many benefits. Gentle on the joints, water exercises are good for pregnant women, people with joint or back problems and the overweight. Using lightweight equipment allows for less strain on the muscles. A basic piece for water exercising is the flotation belt, the swim bars, fins, kick boards and hand paddles. Water provides warmth and buoyancy. Spas provide access to warm water to exercise at home. The warm water relaxes the muscles allowing them to perform better. With relaxed muscles you get an overall feeling of comfort. Pools offer more space than spas for exercising, letting you do a wider variety and more vigorous exercise program.
