4 Low-Impact Exercises to Do in Your Swim Spa

Dive into a world of low-impact exercise and water wonders with High Elevations Hot Tubs & Wellness and Hydropool® Swim Spas.

As a proud dealer of Hydropool Swim Spas in this mountain paradise, we’re here to revolutionize your fitness routine, offering you a range of invigorating but low-impact exercises you can do right in your swim spa. 

Get ready to unleash your inner mermaid or merman with these four low-impact exercises that will have you feeling like a starfish superstar!

First Things First: Get Ready

As with any exercise, you want to make sure you’ve stretched. Even though these are low-impact, swim spa exercises, stretching is still key. 

Your workout will be more effective, and safer for your muscle groups with some light stretching beforehand. And guess what? You can do that in the swim spa as well.

It is also important to drink plenty of fluids. Exercising in water doesn’t mean you don’t need to keep yourself hydrated while you work out. Especially in the moderate heat of a Jackson Hole summer.

Swim Spa Fitness Fun — The Water Plank

What better way to kick off our aquatic escapades than with the legendary Water Plank? Perhaps you wouldn’t think of floating in the water as exercise, but it actually engages your core muscles, not to mention your inner surfer.

With the gentle resistance of the water, this low-impact exercise strengthens your core and stabilizes your entire body. And it is kind of like floating, but while doing a pull-up.

Making a Splash with Aqua Aerobics

In your Hydropool Swim Spas, any exercise can make a splash. Aerobics is no exception.

Whether it’s high knees or jumping jacks, every move becomes an aqua aerobics extravaganza. The buoyancy of the water reduces the impact on our joints, and keeps your body cool, making it a perfect option for all fitness levels. Dive into a pool of playfulness as you synchronize your movements with the rhythm of the bubbling waters.

Flutter Kicks — Let Your Feet Dance in Water

In the aquatic playground of your swim spa, we introduce you to the enchanting world of flutter kicks. Just like water nymphs, you’ll let your feet dance gracefully in the water, engaging your core, hips, and legs in a rhythmic symphony of movements. 

Flutter kicks are a fun and effective low-impact exercise, helping to strengthen your lower body while improving your cardiovascular endurance. 

The water’s resistance adds a delightful challenge, making each kick feel like a playful splash. As you embrace the joy of flutter kicks, you’ll feel the stress and worries dissipate.

Stretch and Flex with Water Yoga

Ease into a realm of tranquility with soul-soothing water yoga. Stretch and flex in the aquatic embrace of your swim spa. 

Support from the water allows you to hold poses longer while reducing stress on your joints. With each breath, you’ll find yourself connecting with a fitter, more centered, and more relaxed you.

At High Elevations Hot Tubs & Wellness, we know a swim spa is more than just a swim spa. 

It can be a destination for relaxation at the end of a long day, it can be a center for fun and cooling down on a hot day, and it can be a place for socializing and spending time with family. And it can also be your very own gym!
