Let’s Make Waves!

Mini Squats

Holding on to the side of the pool while standing with your feet directly under your hips, squeeze your butt and slowly drop your hips back while slowly bending your knees to lower your body.

Leg Curls

While keeping your hips and shoulders in line, bring your heel to your backside. Make this exercise more challenging with a pool noodle.

Marches

With your feet directly under your hips and back straight, alternate driving your knee up in front of you.

Hip Extension

Standing while holding on to the side of the pool, with the leg completely straight, bring it back behind you and squeeze your butt

Step Ups

Use the pool steps for the exercise and practice keeping your leg straight while stepping up with the opposite leg. Keep your core engaged throughout.

Lunges

Step forward with one leg, lowering your hips until both knees are bent at about a 90 degree angle. Gently scull the water for balance and keep the core engaged.

Jumping Jacks

Move your arms and legs together all the way out and all the way in while keeping your back straight.

Squat Jumps

Sit back into a squat and then explosively leap into the air while extending your arms overhead.

Jogging

Aquatic jogging is a lot easier on the joints and gentle sculling can aid in balance. Make sure you squeeze your stomach and butt tight while engaging in this exercise.
