Aquagym allows you to exercise your body in a healthy, relaxing and refreshing way
We offer you four ideas for getting started with aquagym at home, hoping that they will be useful to you and that you will have fun while enjoying the benefits for your body.
Work your abs using a wall
Press your back against the wall while holding on to the edge of the pool with your arms. Then raise your legs to form a right angle, and bend them towards your chest before stretching them again. Repeat the movement about ten times and rest for 30 seconds. You can do three or four sets of ten squats to build muscle mass gradually and effectively.
Leg swing exercise
Standing in the pool, lean against the wall with one hand on the edge and one foot on the ground. Without bending it, swing the other leg back and forth. It must be completely taut and straight. To feel the effects of this exercise on your muscles, perform five sets of 20 movements with three-second breaks between each set.
Jumps out of the water
Place your hands on the outer edge of the pool or on the bench seat. The range of our BAY model is also ideal for this exercise. Crouch down in the water and jump as if you were trying to get out of the pool. Remember not to bend your arms, to stretch them as much as possible and to push on your legs when you jump so as not to put excessive strain on your arms. When your arms are straight and half of your body is out of the water, go back down and repeat the exercise. For best results, perform three sets of 15 movements with three-second rest breaks.
Lateral swing of the upper body
Stand in the middle of the pool. Extend your arms vertically upwards, with your hands and elbows straight. Begin to swing your torso sideways, without moving your hips or bending your legs. This exercise improves mobility while strengthening your upper body. Perform three sets of 15 movements, pausing for one second between each movement. Remember not to overstress your cervical vertebrae. For even more efficiency and better balance, breathe and perform this exercise slowly.
