Sample Workouts
The average water exercise program is around 45-60 minutes. All workouts should start with a warm up session to stretch muscles and increase circulation. You should gradually increase the intensity until you reach the level that is right for you. Workouts should include a variety of exercises that target specific body parts for toning, flexibility, strength, etc. Most workouts also include a cardio section for 20-30 minutes. End your routine with a 8-10 minute cool down period with stretches and slow movements. These are sample routines — you should design a workout that is suited to your needs and capabilities.
