Deep Water Fitness Inspiration
By Cindy Vance-Brossman
Deep forces is an amazing workout incorporating steady state cardio, core training, wall exercises and the use of a single buoy for some creative cardio and core exercises. My inspiration for this video was my own love of exercising in deep water. The facilty where I teach has no option for deep water. I live in Wisconsin and so outdoor pools are limited and so are the times available. Therefore, during the summers I started teaching deep water in the deep section of my home pool. It soon became a hit. The space is limited, but my deep water fans will squeeze in to get a spot. My students were excited to try something unique and just can’t wait for summer in Wisconsin for deep water at Cindy’s house.
My goal is to find new challenges for my students. By combining cardio, strength and equipment, my students can experience a full body deep water workout that they rave about. This video demonstrates some of their favorite moves. Also, while creating this class, I had tons of fun practicing in the water and many of the moves you see were found by just playing in the water. I hope you enjoy the workout.
