4. Builds Strength

It's a fact that water is denser than air, so working out in the water automatically adds resistance. This resistance helps build muscle as class members push and paddle against the press of the water. Water aerobics classes may also use water weights, resistance bands, and other equipment to help increase the workout's strength-building potential.
