The Benefits of Water Aerobics There are a number of reasons you should try water exercises if you are a senior, and getting fit is just one of them. Here are 8 physical benefits, and 4 mental benefits, of water aerobics. Physical Benefits Builds strength: Water adds resistance to any workout, and water weights and other equipment can increase the effect. Enhances range of motion: With greater buoyancy and lower gravity, exercise in water can give you a greater range of motion. Helps with balance: The fluidity of water can help you work on your balance, giving you more confidence. Improves heart and lung function: Combining a vigorous workout with water pressure helps the heart, lungs and circulation. Increases flexibility: With the support of water, you may be able to increase your flexibility, which helps your muscles. Manages weight: Water aerobics burns calories and helps boost the metabolism, which can help with weight loss. Relieves joint pain: With less strain on the joints, water gives you therapeutic benefits, and can ease pain. Strengthens bones: Water-based exercise can maintain or improve bone health, according to the Aquatic Exercise Association. Mental Benefits Boosts mental health: The sounds and sensations of water helps you relax and de-stress. Contributes to well-being: Exercising in water can improve mood, decrease anxiety and fight depression, according to the CDC.
