This shallow-end exercise is done with pool stairs, alternately with aqua steppers. It aims at strengthening your leg muscles and at improving your balance.
With your lower body supported in the water all the time, you can easily and safely strengthen your legs. You will only be working against your upper body's weight, and against water resistance. |
Starting Position:
You can perform this exercise in two different positions - both provide similar results. The first position is by laying on your back in the deep area with the noodle under your arms and legs straight together, slightly below parallel. The second is standing position, with straight back and noodle under your arms. Both your legs down, straight together and as deep as you can.
Starting Position:
In the shallow area, stand along the wall and hold the edge with one hand. Keep that arm straight and the other arm by your side. Keep your back straight and your body weight on your legs. Step on the noodle with your far foot and keep it slightly in front of your body.
Starting Position:
Stand by the edge of the pool. Lean your body toward the wall. Hold the wall with straight arm. Raise your far leg to the side,below the parallel level, with pool noodle under your foot. Keep your leg straight. |
