A Waterfull Workout

Jul. 7, 2008 |

Last week we told you about the best gear to enhance a wet workout. Now try them on with this low-impact cardio pool routine from Bryan Beary, Associate Aquatics Director at Asphalt Green.

Shape your legs:

Stand in shoulder-deep water and hold onto the edge of the pool for balance. Slowly extend your right leg straight out to the side as far up as you can, keeping toes pointed. Do 8-10 times and switch legs.

Firm those arms:

Stand in shoulder-deep water with arms hanging straight down at your sides. Slowly extend both arms straight out, up to water-level. Do 3 sets of 8-10 repetitions. Use water dumbbells for added resistance.

Tone that tush:

Stand in the water with feet hip-width apart. Bend your knees slightly as you push your hips back as if you’re sitting down on a chair. Keep your knees behind your toes and your feet planted firmly on the bottom of the pool. Now squeeze your glutes as you rise up. Do as many as your butt will allow!

Intersperse with laps around the pool to achieve a Baywatch-worthy physique.
