2. We are all looking for low-impact, fun ways to get into shape.
Seniors especially need something that’s easy on the joints and
doesn’t require a lot of physical challenges.
3. • These exercises are done in a swimming pool and do not require
swimming skills.
• Not only can water exercise be fun and refreshing when it’s hot out,
but it is also safe and beneficial to seniors with a variety of fitness
levels and abilities.
• It provides the same cardio and strength training benefits of
land-based exercises, but with much less pressure to the joints.
Enter water aerobics.

4. Most importantly, low-impact water aerobics exercises are safe
and beneficial for those suffering from conditions such as
osteoporosis, heart problems, back problems, balance and
coordination problems and arthritis.
5. • Perhaps you would like to perform everyday functions with ease,
such as gardening, picking up your grandkids or going for a walk.
• These activities require flexibility and strength, two positive benefits
of water aerobics.
Weight loss, stress reduction, lowering blood pressure and muscle
endurance can all result from water aerobics.
6. Water exercise, though easy, can also be challenging. Exercises such
as jumping, stair climbing and jogging can increase resistance in the
pool.

7. Here are some fun water exercises to get out and try:
• Toe-heel walk: walking on an imaginary tightrope for
balance/coordination.
• Kicks: backward, bicycle or side-to-side kicks for abs, glutes, back
and hips.
• Marching/jogging: strengthens the lower body (hamstrings,
thighs and quads)
• Jumping jacks: primarily for weight loss (works entire body).
8. Water aerobics can also provides a fun way to meet people.
Contact your local YMCA, gym or wellness center for classes or
simply locate a pool to try some on your own.
