Hello, I wish to put myself to Aquabike, but the problem is that I do not see too much interest to stay on an aquatic bike and pedal for 45 minutes. Do you have any other exercises to propose to me?

Of course not, you do not stay on an Aquabike for 45 minutes only to pedal. I reassure you, there are different exercises for this sport; As for example the exercise behind the saddle: you have to put yourself behind the saddle by holding on to it with your hands and continue pedalling. You do not have to pedal like the exercise of the handlebars: you stand in front of the handlebars facing the Aquabike, you hold the handlebars with your hands, you bend your knees until you do not to touch the pool floor and you swing from left to right. You can do push-ups by gripping the saddle and handlebar and use the space between them.

You also have the possibility to use complementary material for muscle strengthening such as: elastics ropes, dumbbells, bars and even floating pool noodles.

The exercises depend on your aqua aerobics instructor or following our DVDs. And don't forget to hydrate yourself!

 

I want to do Aquabike, however when I did my research on the internet, I saw that there were a lot of Aquabikes. How can I find the aquabike I need?

First, you have to see the level you are aiming for: soft to moderate exercise, evolutionary or intensive. Then you would define the time to use your Aquabike i.e. occasional or regular user. If you do sessions every day, it is better to take a professional Aquabike, or if you perform sessions at least 3 times a week or less you will need a less evolved equipement.

Finally, to choose your Aquabike it must be adapted to your pool, as well as establish a budget for the purchase of your Aquabike (400 € to 600 € for a used one, 700 € to 2000 € for a new. Everything depends on of course the accessories you want)

You should know that the choice of your Aquabike also depends on the depth of your pool. it is better to have ¾ of your body submerged. The majority of our Aquabikes are adjustable ranging from 1.10 meters to 1.70 meters. It is advisable to take an adjustable Aquabike. You can modify the height of the pool floor supports in front and rear, the height of the handlebars and the saddle, the depth (horizontal space between the handlebars and the saddle) as well as the resistance of the bike, if you want to make more effort when you pedal.
