Barefoot Fitness Spas Blog

Everybody understands the benefits of aquatic exercise. What everybody does not realize is that swimming and other aquatic exercises are not always (or even usually) a feasible option. Outdoor community pools are only open between three and six months out of the year. Even if they were open year round, a big in-ground bucket of ice is hardly an appetizing environment for swimming. Personal pools are usually too narrow and/or shallow to perform aquatic exercises and are also subject to freezing. Indoor pools often come with a hefty membership price and limited use due to all the classes and ‘open time’ for the children.

I know one place where you can be swimming during the December holiday season: in your own Fitness Spa! Each of our Fitness Spas, from our new Barefoot Tarsus swim spa to our award winning Barefoot Bosetti are designed with state-of-the-art propulsion systems as well as advanced temperature control technology. So whether it’s a July afternoon in Phoenix or a snowy New Years day in Buffalo, be assured that you can get a great aquatic workout in your Barefoot Fitness Spa and love every minute of it!

There’s nothing quite like a backyard swimming pool. If you want to swim though, a backyard swimming pool is just too short. Five strokes – wall – five strokes – wall – five strokes – wall… it gets pretty old. Even a 50 foot pool is sometimes too short to really get in to a swimming rhythm. That’s where Barefoot Fitness swim spas come in. We build our swim spas for those who like the backyard pool idea but still desire the fitness and health benefits of swimming.

Few fitness activities rival swimming for cardiovascular and muscular benefits. Swimming works more muscle groups – simultaneously – then almost any other form of exercise. So it’s a super-efficient work out.

Swimming in a swim spa burns as many calories as other aerobic sports, without the risk of injury to muscles, bones, and ligaments, due to stress and constant pounding. Swimming in a Barefoot Fitness Spa is a safe and soothing aerobic activity that works out all muscle groups and that you can enjoy all year long.

You don’t have to be a swimmer to benefit from a Barefoot Fitness Spa. Take part in aquatic exercise with a Barefoot Fitness Piscina. Aquatic fitness is ideal for people of all ages, body types, and fitness levels. If you like sports you can practice the movements involved with the sport in the water for ultimate fitness. For example, joggers can jog, rowers can row, and weight lifters can tone – a great way to increase power and stamina.

Barefoot Fitness Spas offers aquatic exercise equipment optional with all fitness swim spas. This aerobic exercise gear, or fitness sports gear (FSG) opens up a window to an entire new world of aquatic exercise. By adding this aquatic work out resistance bundle, your barefoot fitness swim spa will be transformed in to an all encompassing hydrotherapy hot tub, aerobic swimming spa, and an aquatic fitness exercise hot tub spa all in one.
