Aquacize Classes
Aquacize is a multi-faceted form of exercise, geared toward all ages and all
fitness levels. People who can swim and non-swimmers alike can take advantage
of the multiple health benefits water aerobics provides.
Aquacize is a very safe and beneficial form of exercise. Water protects the joints
while providing a natural resistance for muscle toning. Other benefits include:
improved strength and balance, as well as providing a greater range of motion
to enhance the quality of life for those participants who routinely exercise.
Overall health can be improved by elevating cardiovascular function. High blood
pressure and bad cholesterol may also be lowered while raising good cholesterol.Participants
are encouraged in fitness and fellowship, while raising their health and fitness
levels.
The Pickens County YMCA Aquacize Class participants are a very special group
of individuals from various backgrounds. These individuals also have different
fitness levels and span different age groups. This band of very unique individuals
has blended through fitness to become a very close knit, caring class.
