Exercising in the water is an especially enjoyable
experience for pregnant women.
Water is a versatile medium that is used for resistance exercises and cardio-respiratory fitness creating increased metabolism and overall endurance. Because buoyancy supports a high percentage of the body's weight and gives the feeling of lightness, pregnant women love the assistance the water affords them, especially during the later stages. Additionally, water exercise facilitates the reduction of swelling through the constant compression and the coolness of the water.
Using different kinds of equipment make this prenatal
aquatics program a fun experience. It will help you
maintain your physical strength and confidence through
your pregnancy. Remember that it is important during
this special time to nurture your body and spirit in
a pleasurable yet entertaining exercise environment.
