The many benefits of aquagym



Aquagym is born with goals related to motor rehabilitation, especially post traumatic. Since the 1980s, this discipline has become a full-fledged gymnastic practice .

As often happens in many motor disciplines, aquagym also comes from America and, once "migrated", has become a mass phenomenon. The pool from there has also become the temple of the new lovers of this water sport that falls within the vast range of acquafitness.

The benefits of aquagym

Why choose aquagym? The benefits of acquagym are many and are due to the fact that we are talking about a complete, effective, harmonious and costly discipline in terms of calories.

The aquagym is perfect for those who want to gradually lose weight and regain a feeling of lightness lost for various reasons. Usually a lesson takes place in a group, but it is up to the individual practitioner to perform the exercises proposed by the poolside coach with as much discipline and rigor. If we quickly review the benefits of aquagym we find:

- Soft impact on physical exertion ;

- Guaranteed protection for bones and joints;

- Strengthening of joint flexibility;

- Improvement of muscle tone ;

- Nervous relaxation and elimination of toxins

Everyone can practice aquagym ; the target this discipline is aimed at is very wide because the exercise can be varied according to personal needs, which can be rehabilitative, sporting, aesthetic. Excellent for preventing osteoarthritis, discopathies and scoliosis . Suitable for pregnant women and the elderly (the sweet version is preferable for these two categories) or for those who are under physical rehabilitation .

The effectiveness of aquagym

The benefits of aquagym are linked above all to the environment in which the lessons take place: water. The aquagym uses the greater density of water than air (about 1 times higher) to progressively calibrate the intensity of the load, diversifying speed and extension of the movement .

In this way the normal physical capacities of resistance, strength, coordination and action are developed, improving the performance and aesthetics of the body. The tools used during the acquagym lesson can be the aqua belt (floating belt), anklets, dumbbells and rockers .

The music then has a positive effect on the psyche and on the body; if the volume is right and the bases are right, the rhythm search will be automatically searched by the body itself. In practice, we keep ourselves in shape and have fun.

Again, among the benefits of the acquagym, this is not overwhelming: friendships are made, then, because when the exercises become hard and the abdominals begin to give way, understanding glances between the bathers (often it is the women who attend aquagym lessons ) become opportunities for collective laughter in the locker room.
