Aquatone or Aquacise

[Tilly2]

Has anyone tried either of these?

yes bit of a laugh called different things at different pools but you will get splashed.

[Tilly2]

I don't mind getting plashed. I just want to tone up a bit.

^ slashed. No splashed!

Oh, do you mean aqua aerobics? We call it aquafit here. Lol. (I thought the ones you mentioned were some sort of skin cream).

I love it. I stopped going for completely unrelated reasons but will be joining at a new pool soon. It's good fun and you really feel like you're getting a good work out. Plus as you're in the pool nobody can see your bits jiggling about and I found at the group I went to there was a huge variety of different types of people there so everyone just does what they can. There's no keeping up with anyone.

well you do get support from the water and resistance so its actually quite effective I used to do a lot of the exercises when I went back to the pool on my own

Oh, and if you go don't make the mistake I did the first time in thinking I'd wear my favourite tankini. I spent most the lesson having to hold the top half down and the bottom half up. :)

I dont have the figure for a tankini, Evian. Hence the need for some proper exercise. I do walk a lot but I need to do something about my waist.
