Water fitness classes are more popular than ever—and with good reason, since they are fun, accessible, and effective. But how do you, as an instructor or trainer, keep them fresh? How do you continue to challenge your participants, who have varied interests and goals? Water Fitness Progressions has the answers.

• Over 150 ready-to-use lesson plans

• Variations of the shallow-water and deep-water exercises offer over 590 possibilities

• Specific programming for shallow and deep water

• Suggestions for introducing equipment to a workout

• High-intensity and low-intensity training plans

• Tips for using water resistance to improve strength
