Build a Pool
Many homeowners who have a pool are able to work out in it during the warm weather. However, just because the summer heat has come and gone, it doesn’t mean homeowners can’t still stay in shape while taking a relaxing dip in their hot tub or spa. A hot tub may not be the same size as a swimming pool, but it can still be a good way for people of all ages to stay in shape throughout the year.
At Carlton Pools, one of the top swimming pool companies in Berks County, we can help all homeowners stay in shape in their own backyard. Anyone with a hot tub can stay fit by following these exercises in their pool this season.
Squats
Since your space is drastically smaller compared to a swimming pool, working out in a hot tub is limited to working out specific parts of the body compared to all parts of your body if you do laps in your pool. Regardless of how small your hot tub is, there is still the space to perform squats. The added warm water helps relax and tone muscles better than doing squats outside of a pool or hot tub.
Knee Raises
After your squats, you can focus on knee raises. Knee raises will help work out your core while burning energy and helping you relax all at the same time. While standing on one leg, bring the other knee up to your chest. Rapidly alternating will help burn a lot bit of cardio at the same time.
Remember to Stretch
Regardless of what kind of exercises you plan on doing in your hot tub or spa, it is important to stretch before and afterward. Doing any kind of workout without properly stretching can result in injury or a rough morning of getting out of bed.
