What exercises in my pool would be good for a 53 year young flabby lady. Legs, arms etc. Not good swimmer.?

Answers:

Water is a great environment for toning up, not stressful on joints, but the water resistance works as weight training. I taught and was certified as a water aerobics instructor and was in the best shape of my life at that point. I'd advise getting some water barbells and working in about chest deep water and do some typical arm barbell exercises. You can sit on a fun noodle, also, and float in the deeper end and "jog" or "walk" through the water. Most community pools have water aerobics classes to get ideas from

Swimsuit for a 15 year old girl?

I like to do the chicken dance. You put your head underwater, swim one foot, turn around, swim another foot, stick your leg above the water, then do a flop da la flop.

I need to get in shape for swimming, ideas?

create a whirlpool by walking one way around the inner edge of the pool, then when the whirlpool is going strong, reverse your walk.

Why can I see better underwater?

Enroll in a local water aerobics course. There, you will get professional advice (for cheap) on toning and cardio. There will be a lot of moving and resistance, but nothing too overbearing for older adults. It gets the heart moving in the shallow end and it's a great way to meet new people!

Can you shed tears under water?

Do you mean water aerobic exercises or swimming exercises? Working on a kick board is great for your legs and hips, and working with a pull buoy is great for your arms and shoulders. (A pull buoy is a figure-8 shaped foam buoy that you put between your legs to support your hips and lower body and then you propel yourself using only your arms.
One of my favorite exercises is using the pull buoy and swimming with only one arm down the length of the pool, then using the other arm to come back. It really helps your swim technique.
Another great exercise is to put on a nose clip, then lower yourself into the pool, right at the edge, put your knees and lower legs on the pool deck, tuck your butt against the side of the pool and do sit ups, reaching for your toes on the deck.
I usually do 100 of these (I'm 74, but I've been doing them for a while, so don't worry about how many you do. Just trust me that it's a good conditioner.)
Hope these help!
