Exercise is so important for every stage of life. It is one of the keys to a healthy lifestyle and it only increases in importance as you get older. Health becomes a little more important and achieving that health becomes a little more difficult. A swim spa can be a fun way to sneak in a little exercise and improve your overall health.

One of the things that slows you down as you get older is decreased mobility. You get stuck in a cycle you have decreased mobility which leads to more aches and pains, the aches and pains keep you from exercising and a lack of exercise leads to stiff joints and muscles, then you guessed it decreased mobility.

Enter in the swim spa. Exercising in water has so many health benefits you won’t know how you ever exercised without one.

Weightlessness

Exercising in water relieves that atmospheric pressure that makes working out on land more difficult. It also takes your own body weight out of the equation. All of this weightlessness means that your joints bend and flex easier which leads to greater flexibility and decreased joint pain, in and out of the water. These effects can work wonders for people who are unable to do traditional exercises due to arthritis. Water exercise is also a perfect option for those who have had any kind of joint replacement. You are able to exercise the joints and muscles while minimizing any unnecessary pain in the replacement area.

Stress Relief

Water has been proven to have a calming effect on people, those who are around the water report better moods and less stress. Combine the stress relieving properties of water with the stress relief that comes from exercise and your water exercise is sure to leave you happier, healthier, and less stressed.

Increased Circulation

Using your swim spa for your cardio workout will not only increase the number of calories that you burn compared to land exercise, but it also provides improved blood circulation and decreased blood pressure. This is fantastic news for those that have blood pressure concerns when doing aerobic exercise.

These are just some of the many benefits that come from moving your exercise routine into a swim spa. The best thing might be that you can get all of these wonderful benefits right in your own backyard, no need to drive to the crowded gym and fight for a spot in the pool. Whether you choose a swim spa from our Michael Phelps line or one of our H2X swim spas, you will have the best in exercise right at your fingertips.

These swim spas also have all of the benefits of relaxing spa seats so you can unwind after you exercise.
