Low impact This makes water exercises an ideal activity for a low-impact water workout. Water aerobics allows you to perform exercises while placing very little weight on the joints opening up a new opportunity for people of all ages and varying levels of fitness. 2. Improves physical and mental health The natural resistance of water increases strength while keeping you cool and comfortable. Just 30 minutes of a pool workout per week can help decrease your risk of chronic illness, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Water aerobics can improve your cardiovascular and respiratory system in the same ways as cycling or running. 3. Boost confidence Pool exercise can boost your confidence if you are intimidated by conventional exercise routines. In the water, you are mostly submerged, so no one can see if you get the moves wrong. If you are a beginner, you can build a level of fitness that you can then carry over to feel more confident when exercising on land. 4. Increase calorie burn Water also has greater resistance than air, which means walking in water requires more effort and ultimately burns more calories than walking on land. 5. It’s a fun way to exercise! Being in a pool is always splashy fun. Participating in a water aerobics class not only makes you happier and healthier, it is also a great social experience where new friends are made. Hurricane Preparedness (Continued) Let family and friends know to keep and eye on the Barrington website and Facebook page for mass updates regarding our community. If you are on oxygen, be sure to communicate this in advance with the Concierge desk so emergency power arrangements in our common area space can be made available to you to support your oxygen devices. Loss of power and AC is common during hurricane landfall. As a reminder, the Barrington is required by the state to provide Cooling Stations for Assisted Living residents. There are no regulations for Independent residents, which is why we recommend making precautionary arrangements for comfort with battery operated fans. If you choose to evacuate with friends or family, please let the Concierge desk know. We will want to gather information on the address you will be at and contact information so we can make sure you are safe and communicate with you to coordinate your return. It is our sincerest hope we do not have to face this obstacle, but we are glad to remain in a prepared state in the event of a hurricane. Gratefully, Angelique Kaczmarek (Continued on back.)
