Aqua Boot Camp Workout
Aqua boot camp classes are a favorite of many water fitness participants because they provide an athletic challenge with low-impact exercise that would not be possible in a fitness studio. Fast paced, interval style workouts are also popular because “all-out-effort” is performed in a short burst of intensity, followed by an even shorter period of recovery.
Motor Skills & Athletic Performance: 40/:20, :30/:15 and 20/:10
~ Accuracy
The importance of accuracy is evident in many sports, whether it be throwing, hitting or kicking a ball, or striking a target. Accuracy translates into daily living with activities such as reaching, aiming, pouring and more.
~ Strength
Muscular strength is one of the five traditional components of fitness, that also include muscular endurance, flexibility, cardio respiratory endurance and body composition. The loss of muscular strength can adversely impact ADLs and ultimately independent living. Strength is easily maintained through a regular fitness regimen.
~ Coordination
Athletic coordination is the ability to combine several distinct movement patterns into a singular distinct movement. Fitness activities are often designed to challenge and improve coordination with advanced choreography.
~ Agility
Agility is the capacity to change course, controlling the direction and position of your body while maintaining your momentum. Agility is one of the most common motor skills trained for sports performance and in boot camp programs
~ Power
Power is a combination of speed and muscular force. Athletes are always looking to improve their speed and explosiveness. Plyometric exercises are often used in fitness to train power.
~ Endurance
Cardio respiratory endurance refers to the level at which your heart, lungs, and muscles work together when you're exercising for an extended period of time. Stamina is essential to an active lifestyle.
~ Speed
Speed is the ability to move your body swiftly, often associated with running, but in sports also associated with quick movements of the limbs.
~ Flexibility
Flexibility refers to the range of motion in a joint or a group of joints, correlated with muscle length. Several Poolfit & Fitmotivation videos feature flexibility training. The loss of flexibility is one of the leading sources of disability and chronic injury.
Equipment is not required in this workout because the water’s resistance is plenty. However, if someone is not a swimmer, they will want to keep their feet on the pool floor and simply perform bigger moves. In deep water, a participant is perpetually suspended and therefore would focus on increasing range of motion. But belts will be optional.
