I play like a kid! I do handstands, swim, race friends across the pool. I am always moving, yet having fun at the same time! No floating around for me!

I'm a big fan of just spending time doing long distances. It's not the same intensity as a run, but spending a long time in the pool is just as good.

I swim laps at the gym. Great exercise and very Zen-like!

i don't work out in the water myself, but my 76 year old friend does and has for over 20 years. She says it's what keeps her going, and an aqua fitness set like this would be great for her!

I like to do laps around the pool. Gives me a great full body workout.

I absolutely LOVE playing pool volleyball with friends. It's a great workout because it's a lot tougher to move quickly in the water. Jumping and diving for the ball really give you a great workout. This set would really help me get in a good workout when a group of friends aren't available.

Pick me - it will go to good use!

I've been training for a marathon swim, so right now my favorite workout is just long, long sets of freestyle. I'm trying to do between 2,500 and 3,000 yards at a time right now.

I like to use my gym's pool to do strength moves like jumping squats, and I'm building up to be able to swim laps for exercise. It's SUCH a good full body workout, I'm just not very good at it.

I just joined the local gym which has a pool right by where I work so I've started eating lunch at my desk and going to the pool on my lunch break. It would be sweet to have pool workout equipment!

I like to do laps but I am also interested in starting a water aerobics routine. :)

Missy 9-02-2009 @ 7:06PM

My favorite way to work out in the water is swimming laps back and forth!

Tiffany 9-02-2009 @ 9:12PM

I like to walk the length of the pool quickly instead of swimming laps because I'm no good at that, and it still feels like a workout!

sandy 9-02-2009 @ 11:42PM

water aerobics as well as water volleyball

Peggy Smith 9-02-2009 @ 11:49PM

These are so great. We've been trying to excercise and getting into a better routine. I love this idea of being able to do your work out in your pool. Great idea. Thanks for this chance.

Eka 9-03-2009 @ 7:14AM

I swim laps when working out in the water but have considered trying the body glove water weights and accessories.

Tari Lawson 9-03-2009 @ 9:30AM

Currently, I just swim laps to excercise in the water.

mickeyfan 9-03-2009 @ 1:59PM

Water aerobics.

I'm trying to think of activities I DON'T like to do in the water... Swimming laps makes for a good workout, as does informal playing- all those acrobatic moves I can't do on land are suprisingly easy and fun in water. Volleyball, dodgeball/keep-away... challenging others to play brings that competitive edge, and makes you forget you're even working out...
