The best exercises to do in the water

There are several exercises to do in the water, but we are going to explain some very simple ones in case you have never exercised in the water in your pool before. To begin with, there are exercises in the water with the churro that are suitable for toning up and even losing some weight. The squash will also give you confidence if you are not a very good swimmer.

Water exercises to lose weight with the churro can be done by holding the churro in your hands and bringing it close to your chest. You will remain floating in the water of your pool and you will have to pedal with your legs. Focus on your abs.

Another water exercise for toning up is to place the churro on your back and, while floating, kick in front of you. With this exercise in the water of your pool you will be toning your legs and working your glutes. It is very complete.

There are also water exercises for your back, as swimming is advisable if you suffer from pain or a more serious problem in this part of your body. V-paddling, crawl or backstroke will alleviate any discomfort you may be suffering from.

However, we advise you to have a pool exercise specialist make a personalised water exercise plan for you. This will be the way to make the most of the benefits of swimming in your pool. In addition, if you have any pathology, you will be relieved to discover how much better you feel.
