Abs and Lower Back Exercises in the Pool

Plank Knee to Noodle

1/20/2019

This is the aqua version of the Plank Knee to Chest exercise. This type of exercises I prefer to be done in the water, where your body is safely floating and your legs kicking against water resistance, than on dry-land.

Planks are great for core muscles but they also work other muscle groups. Although performing it in the water is safer, you'd still want to keep a good posture during the exercise.

Tuck Jumps in the Pool

If you are looking for a good cardio workout that helps shape your abs too, then this exercise is for you. You don't even need swimming skills to perform this exercise as it is done in the shallow end while standing up. Tuck jumps is a high intensity workout, but it can be adjusted to meet the needs of people with limited mobility.

This deep-end exercise targets your oblique. You will need a pool noodle or a floating device to support you. If performed regularly, and in combination with other oblique exercises, this exercise can be very good for losing side fat.

This exercise, which is preferably performed in the deep-end with a pool noodle, in standing position, can be performed in the shallow-end as well. If performed regularly and in combination with other abdominal exercises, you can expect some good results.
