Swimming in water like a fish can give you a new life

As the name suggests, water yoga is an innovative form of exercise that cleverly combines the basic principles of water exercise with some familiar yoga postures. Currently, there are tens of thousands of people in the United States who are keen on water yoga, and many swimming pools in Japan have also opened water yoga fitness programs, but in our country, it is still in its infancy.

Six benefits of water yoga

1. Eliminate fatigue: In combination with abdominal breathing, water pressure can be used to massage, squeeze, and rub the internal organs, glands, skin, muscles, and bones to relax the muscles and bones of the whole body and eliminate fatigue.

2. Improve concentration: It can help us learn to relax and concentrate. It is also helpful for strengthening the sense of balance. In order to float to the surface of the water, the human body must be completely relaxed. Therefore, for beginners, the most difficult point at the beginning is the word "relax".

3. Strengthen cardiopulmonary function: It can strengthen muscle strength, muscle endurance and cardiopulmonary function training; activities in water require twice the calories than on land. It can not only consume excess fat, contract muscles and be fit, but also strengthen cardiopulmonary function and increase the transportation of oxygen, carbon dioxide and blood.

4. Massage and skin care: Since there is relatively less sweating during water exercise, the irritation to the skin from the salt in the sweat after land training is reduced.

5. Weight loss: Water exercise uses aerobic energy consumption and mainly relies on glycogen and fat for energy. Therefore, doing this exercise in conjunction with a scientific nutritional diet plan can have a very significant effect on regulating body fat metabolism and reducing body fat.

6. Body shaping: After exercising in water, the body surface heat dissipation stimulation and buoyancy pressure stimulation can reflexively adjust the distribution of body fat, transfer it to the subcutaneous tissue, promote fat synthesis, form a very thin fat layer, and make the body lines flexible and harmonious.

Water yoga is highly applicable

At present, this avant-garde and fashionable movement has just begun to become popular in Beijing and Shanghai in our country. According to relevant personnel, due to the various properties of water, the body's plasticity is the strongest when exercising in water, excess fat can be eliminated in a shorter period of time, and sufficient physical exercise can be obtained, avoiding damage to bones caused by long-term exercise. It is suitable for many people.

If you can persist in doing water yoga for a long time, it can not only adjust the human posture and the physiological curvature of the spine, but also make the whole body develop in a streamlined shape. This adaptive variability shapes the beautiful lines of the human body, especially the shaping of the curves of the abdomen, feet, buttocks, chest, shoulders and back.
