Benefits of aqua-spinning and aqua-fitness

Aqua-spinning and aqua-fitness offer a complete, comfortable and safe workout. With the proper supervision, participants can reach their fitness goals by taking part in these aquatic activities.

Since the physical activity takes place underwater, the joints are subjected to much less stress.
The heart rate is reduced by 10-15 beats per minute compared with the same effort expended out of the water.
The muscles produce less lactic acid due to the water-related reduction in body temperature and to the massage effect provided by contact with the water while pedalling/walking.
Weight loss is facilitated.
Muscle strength is boosted.
Bone mass is maintained.
Blood circulation is improved and blood pressure is reduced.
Stress is reduced and sleep is improved.
Discomfort is reduced due to sweating during and after the physical activity.
Post-training fatigue is reduced.
Posture, muscle relaxation and flexibility are improved
Muscle pain is relieved.
Balance is improved.
Cellulite is reduced.
Active aquatic drainage serves to strengthen the vein network and to address various needs (health, esthetics and physical fitness).
Participants burn up to 800 calories per hour on the bicycle. Thanks to the support/pressure provided by the water, blood circulation is speeded up and fat elimination is facilitated.
