Aquatics Aquatic Exercise Aquatic exercise is not only good to develop flexibility, strength and aerobic conditioning, but an excellent way to restore balance and coordination after injury or illness. Athletes and dancers can do ballet barres, aqua jog, box or do aerobics in an environment where buoyancy and resistance replace the heavy pull and impact of terrestrial gravity.
Water is an excellent medium for rehabilitation as well as cross-training.
I'd lie on my back all day and float. But here I am with muscles aching, My easy life all but forsaking. You're no longer a wreck. There's no time to switch. And yet, and yet, you mean so well, You care so much, and I can tell You see us all as young, not old, With heads held high and walking bold.
