What is it like to do it in the water on a hot summer day?

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 China, it is still in its infancy.

Six benefits of water yoga

(1) Eliminate fatigue

In conjunction with abdominal breathing, water pressure can be used to massage, squeeze, and knead the internal organs, glands, skin, muscles, and bones to achieve the effect of relaxing the body's muscles and bones and eliminating fatigue.

(2) Improve your concentration

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

(3) Strengthen cardiopulmonary function

It can enhance the training of muscle strength, muscle endurance and cardiopulmonary function; activities in water require twice as many calories as those on land. It can not only consume excess fat, contract muscles and build a healthy body, but also enhance cardiopulmonary function and increase the transport of oxygen, carbon dioxide and blood.

(4) Massage and skin care

Since exercising in water causes relatively less sweating, 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, with glycogen and fat as the main energy source. 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) Shaping

After exercising in water, the heat dissipation stimulation of the body surface and the buoyancy pressure stimulation can reflexively adjust the distribution of body fat, causing it to transfer to the subcutaneous tissue, thereby promoting fat synthesis and forming a very thin fat layer, making the body lines flexible and harmonious.

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.
