aquacise

Wet fitness class

Aquacise is exercise performed in water, typically in a swimming pool.

The water provides resistance while reducing impact on joints, making it popular among older adults, people recovering from injuries, and those with arthritis.

Classes often include aerobic movements, stretching, and strength training adapted for the aquatic environment.

My doctor recommended aquacise to help with my knee rehabilitation.
