There’s a lot of mythology surrounding swimming and water exercises: that water work is only for senior citizens, arthritis sufferers and rehabbing professional athletes; that it’s not an efficient way to build cardiovascular endurance or burn fat; that it’s inferior to land-based exercise programs like running and weight training. Water Workouts not only attacks those myths, it shows how to use a swimming pool and a few pieces of equipment to improve everything: strength, endurance, flexibility, muscularity. If you don’t mind getting wet, this is one of the best workout manuals you’ll find.
