Water Aerobics in your above ground pool

Backyard pool workout session should consist of:

•Warm up – 2-3 minutes of easy movements. Focus on the entire body, head to toe. Flex and extend all the joints, keeping movements at a low to moderate speed.

•Main Session – 20-40 minutes of continuous aerobic activity. Workout within your personal fitness level and established medical guidelines
•Strength Water Workout (optional) – 5-15 minutes of abdominal and/or arm exercises using strength resistant equipment like DeltaBells, X-Cuffs, and Web Pro Gloves.

•Cool Down – 3 minutes of easy fluid movements in the water. Decrease speed and perform movements which emphasize those muscle groups worked during the session.

•Stretch – A thorough stretch is always a good idea after (and before) your workout
