Water Aerobics: Fun Easy and Cheap.

Just Keep Swimming

Water Aerobics

The past couple of weeks I have been on my grind with working out.  I have done everything from taking Zumba Classes to Line dancing with Cupid of the Cupid Shuffle.  It has been an absolute blast.  It is alway great to switch my workout up. It keeps the body guessing on what to do next as well as keeps my mind from getting bored.  

I have always wanted to try water aerobics, but just never had the time to do it.  I thought it was...dare I say it?  I really don’t want to admit this, but I must.  I thought it was for old people.  GASP! Yes, I was being snobbish. I didn’t want to go to water aerobics with my seasoned seniors.  I am ashamed of myself for being a snob.  Feel free to feel some kind of way about me, I know I deserve it.  

One Friday, I get a phone call from a friend of mine who has lost 80 lbs.  She was like “Jackie You going to Water Aerobics with us”. She didn’t ask me to go. She demanded that I go.   It was all good because my morning was unproductive.  It happens when you work from home.  I met her along with two other friends and we carpool to Cobb county Recreation to the do Water Aerobics.   

I had an amazing time!  With the old people as a matter of fact!   I stood behind a group of ladies that were obvious friends.  I really like seeing them help each other get fit.  Water Aerobics is a part of their routine. Some ladies get together for tea, these ladies get together over water and weights.  Their joy and attitude were true inspirations for me.  I am truly blessed to have a friend demanded I try water aerobics with her.  

Getting Fit with Friends! 

The workout was easy and fun.  It's gentle on the joints, and I was able to do things in the water I wouldn’t dare try while dry.  I left the aqua center happy and ready to take another class.  I would recommend everyone to add water aerobics to their routine. It is great for longevity. It is $4 per class that's cheaper than paying gym fees.  It is like walking simple easy and cheap!  Water aerobics will never go out of style.
