Water Fitness Ideas for Anyone

Whether you are 15 or 50, you can use these water fitness ideas to start getting your muscles toned and melt fat away.

Leg Lifts & Swimming

Start at one end of the pool and do leg lifts. Lift your legs up to where your knee is even with your thigh and put your hands on your knees each time your knee comes up. Once you have done 10 – 15 of these leg lifts you swim to the deep end of the pool and come back. If there is not a deep end to the pool, you will be able to go to the other side and do leg lifts on the other side.

Walking & Swimming

Walking back and forth in the pool is a great way to add resistance but keep thing simple. Start out by swimming as much as you are comfortable and then go to walking in the pool until you regain your ability to swim. Do this as many times as you would like to burn calories and build muscle tone.

Jumping Jacks

When out of the water, jumping jacks are often too high impact for anyone. When you add water to the equation, you will be able to do jumping jacks without hurting your knees when you come down. If you still don’t want to come off the ground, you can modify the jumping jacks so you are more or less just picking up your feet and allowing them to go in and out.

Making Water Fitness a Routine
