Get busy with the buoys! Busy Buoys is an 18-minute pool workout that includes 12 foam dumbbell exercises separated into three 4-move combos that flow together. This water exercise routine can be performed in both deep and shallow water.
November is Gadget Month. We are featuring four shorter length videos, each featuring different pool equipment. This week the gadget is hand buoys. Last week, we featured kickboards in the video, Kickboard CoreDination, with Melissa Plumeau. On November 23, the featured gadget will be frisbees in the video, Ultimate Frisbee with Cindy Vance-Brossman. Closing out the month, we will feature a holiday gadget with pie plates, in the video, Ready, Set, Play with Kelly Bullard. These shorter length videos are perfect for combining with other videos using the Poolfit App playlist feature.
WORKOUT SUMMARY
Busy Buoys does not include a warm-up or cool down because it is meant to be combined with another workout. Be sure to include your own warm-up and final stretching if you are doing this on its own. The routine was filmed in shallow water, but all the exercises can be performed in deep water as well.
The 12 foam dumbbell exercises are separated into three 4-move combos that flow together to create fun and challenging muscle conditioning choreography. Small to medium sized foam dumbbells are recommended, such as this Thera-Band pair of buoys available on Amazon.

Stay tuned for more gadgets coming later this month.
