Water Jogging Exercises

By 

For individuals who are looking to recover from an injury or simply pursue workouts other than conventional jogging, aqua jogging exercises hold promise as one of the more unconventional options, or excuses, for getting into the water. 
In recent years, This new way to jog has gained acceptance among many circles as a great way to cross-train in a less strenuous activity. With many types of aqua running gear on sale, it's always tempting to hit the pool as an alternative to your typical workouts.
Of course, the foundation of pursuing different aqua jogging exercises rests on the understanding of the many benefits of jogging in water.
1 - Jogging in a swimming pool is great for working out without having to subject your knees and ankles to the stresses of repetitive impact. Running, and even brisk walking, subjects the legs to these forces which are not ideal when recovering from an injury or when the one working out is frail due to old age or any other medical condition. Aqua jogging gives these people a chance to work out without having to absorb all the punishment associated with running on dry ground.
2 - The resistance of the water in aqua jogging can help improve muscle strength and definition. Depending on the aqua jogging exercises that you perform, you can target various parts of your legs and thighs in order to maximize muscle performance without having to risk injury or pain.
Here are the common types of aqua jogging exercises that you can perform should you decide to take on this type of jogging exercise as a workout alternative.
Shallow water jogging - Stand in water that is about stomach deep. This workout is ideal if you are okay with moderate impact and moderate resistance levels. To perform a shallow water jog, jog as you would on dry land moving your arms back and forth and feeling the resistance of the water as you raise your legs with every step.
Deep water jogging - For this type of jogging variation, you will need a deep water aqua jogging belt to keep you steady and afloat. Assume a typical running posture as you are balanced by the belt. Simulate the same jogging movements as you move through the water. The deeper water will increase the resistance on your legs and thighs but without the impact, you shouldn't have any risk for impact injuries.
More intense aqua jogging exercises - You can add intensity or difficulty to each workout by holding dumbbells or moving faster. You can also choose to lift your legs higher, moving in different directions to target adductor and adductor muscles, and running backward to strengthen your hamstring.
With so many aqua jogging exercises at your disposal, you can now enjoy the benefits of jogging exercise without having to risk injury or pain from the typical jarring impacts that are characteristic of typical running workouts.
