3. Low-Impact Exercise

Lots of aerobic exercises like jogging or kickboxing are great for overall health but tough on joints. Water aerobics is an ideal low-impact option. The buoyancy of the water protects joints and prevents jarring, making it an ideal option for those recovering from injury, dealing with a chronic condition like rheumatoid arthritis, or just wanting a gentler re-entry into physical fitness.
