Have you heard of aquajogging, ladies? It’s an ideal activity for fighting cellulite. Let’s explore all the benefits of this sport that lets you break out of your routine and have fun while toning up!
What is aquajogging?
Swimming, aqua aerobics, aquabike… We know those! But aquajogging, or aquarun, is a little more mysterious. As the name suggests, aquajogging involves running in water, either unsupported or on an inclined treadmill. The lack of impact and the feeling of weightlessness provided by the water make it easier to run than on land. Yet despite its apparent ease, this activity is highly effective — it engages every muscle in your body, combining cardio and strength training.
Why is aquajogging so effective against cellulite?
Water sports are among the most effective activities for reducing cellulite, and aquajogging is no exception. First and foremost, this sport gives your cardiovascular system a real workout — building endurance. That’s perfect for breaking down stored fat in the body, including the kind that causes the orange-peel effect.
The resistance of the water during aquajogging is also an excellent way to regain firm, smoother-looking skin. This added resistance works your muscles deeply without any extra weights! This gentle yet effective muscle strengthening helps your body burn the fat released during exercise — both during and after your session. Your skin will quickly feel more toned, smoother, and more even.
Finally, another key benefit of aquajogging is its effect on blood and lymphatic circulation. The movements allow the water to provide a natural massaging and draining action. Since cellulite is often linked to poor circulation, this activity scores even more points in our fight against dimpled skin!
How to practise aquajogging properly?
This sport can be practised at the beach or in a swimming pool. No excuses, ladies — you can do it all year round! For your outfit, opt for a sports bra (for chest support) and bikini bottoms. And if you’re submerged up to your shoulders, use a flotation belt to help with your movements.
Keep your torso upright, with a wide leg movement back and forth. And use your arms as you run! Interval training works best — alternating short bursts of intensity with minutes of moderate-paced running. Aim for 2 to 3 sessions of 35 to 45 minutes per week to see results and effectively reduce cellulite!
