Fun Pool Aerobics Facts by Kim

● Despite being low to no impact exercise, persons who do water exercise can burn just as much body fat and build as much muscle as those who engage in land-based exercise programmes

● Exercising in water builds cardiovascular stamina, strength and flexibility

● Pool aerobics burns fat, increases circulation and can help rehabilitate healing muscles and joints

…and of course

● Working out in the water helps to cool the body from getting too hot!
