Water Aerobics

RICHMOND VA – WATER AEROBICS

Do you enjoy low-impact exercises?

If so, MAC Water Aerobics may be perfect for you. Low-impact exercise is a type of physical activity with little strain or impact on your joints. That reduces your chances of injury and is therapeutic for your body. In Water Aerobics classes, the water acts as constant resistance on your body and trains your body with no stress or impact while challenging flexibility and range of motion.

AQUA BIKES

This is a low impact, high cardio class that uses an aqua bike. An aqua bike is similar to the indoor stationary cycles you see at the gym, except that they’re placed in the water. They have pedals that are average-sized and a seat and handlebars, much like a regular bike. These bikes are submerged in about 3-4 feet of water, and the rider pedals against the water. Aqua cycling is a challenging cardio and strength workout that is great for many types of exercisers, including those with mobility issues or those recovering from an injury. The water’s buoyancy helps to provide support to working muscles and joints, and the moisture in the pool helps to draw heat away from the body and regulate body temperature.
