Aquagym

The benefits conferred by using our Aquagym products are many and varied. Here are just a few:-

  1. Provides a zero impact workout that will not strain the weight bearing joints or the back.
  2. The resistance of the water ensures that the exerciser does not work beyond his/her capability.
  3. The working heart rate in water is lower than when training at a similar intensity on land. This gives a more comfortable exercise effort for a given level of intensity and training effect.
  4. Increases/maintains bone density.
  5. Works muscles that are rarely used on land that have, therefore, lost tone.
  6. The buoyancy and support offered by the water facilitates working the body parts through their full range of motion.
  7. Excellent weight loss programming potential due to the higher energy requirement than similar land based exercises.
  8. Forces the exerciser to maintain abdominal stability during all movements in the water.
  9. Promotes muscular flexibility and joint mobility.
  10. Hydrostatic pressure (the pressure of water on the body) improves blood circulation and helps decrease water retention.
  11. Provides enjoyable variety to 'stale' land based workouts.
  12. Easy to combine with other forms of Aquafitness for infinite variety.
  13. You will never feel sweaty despite perspiring during the workout.
  14. A deep health promoting sleep is often experienced the following night with less muscular pain the following morning.
  15. Water exercise is healthy and in vogue.
  16. The exerciser is hidden by the water which can appeal to those lacking in self confidence.
  17. You do not need to know how to swim.
  18. You do not have to get your hair wet.
  19. It's great fun!
