Obviously, water is the most amazing element. Our life begins with it, without drinking it we cannot live, and in it, we get the best workout ever, without any physical stress on our bodies. 

 
As the name implies, it’s gymnastics in the water. Because of its buoyancy, water makes it easy for you to lift your body or parts of it, almost with a feeling of weightlessness. At the same time, the strenuous resistance of your movements against the water expends energy. You are toning your body and losing calories without feeling it much. Did you know you actually sweat in water?

Aquagym exercises are similar to those you perform on the floor in aerobics or stretching or a similar workout class. Using nothing, or with flippers, flotation belts, boards and other equipment, you are either standing, suspended in the water or floating on top of the water (instead of lying on a mat). All your muscles get to be used. There are exercises for the buttocks, the thighs, abdominals, the arms, etc. and the faster you workout, the more resistance to water you experience, the more you work your muscles and use up calories. 

 
It is for everyone, the young the old, female male, black white, tall short, just about anyone. It is perfect for overweight individuals or for pregnant women because in water all movement is easier. Aquagym is also helpful for people undergoing rehabilitation after an accident or an operation, and for persons with osteoporosis.
