Aqua aerobics, also known as water aerobics, is a fantastic way to stay fit and have fun while doing so. Whether you're a seasoned aqua aerobics enthusiast or just starting, the right swimsuit can make a world of difference in your workout. That’s why we’ve put together some tips on what to look for when shopping around for water aerobics swimsuits and also some recommendations to help you choose the best swimsuit for aqua aerobics.
Best Swimsuit For Aqua Aerobics
Aqua aerobics is a low-impact exercise that takes place in a pool. The water provides resistance, making it an excellent choice for people of all fitness levels, including those with joint issues or injuries. To get the most out of your aqua aerobics sessions, you'll want a swimsuit that is comfortable, durable and provides support in the areas you want it most. Here's what to look for in a swimsuit for aqua aerobics classes -
Chlorine-Resistant Material
Chlorine is commonly used to keep pool water clean but can be harsh on swimwear. To ensure your swimsuit lasts, opt for one made from chlorine-resistant materials. These fabrics are more durable and will retain their colour and shape over time.
Supportive Design
Look for swimsuits with built-in bust support or padding, especially if you're a woman. A swimsuit with a shelf bra can help you feel more comfortable and confident during your aqua aerobics sessions.
More Coverage
Aqua aerobics often involves various movements, including leg lifts and stretches. To avoid any wardrobe malfunctions, choose a swimsuit with more coverage. This means avoiding skimpy bikinis or low-cut options. Save these for your beach holiday. You could also consider a swimming costume with shorts.
Freedom of Movement
Aqua aerobics requires a range of motion. Look for swimsuits with stretchy, flexible materials that allow you to move freely without feeling restricted.
Quick-Drying
You'll be in and out of the water, so a quick-drying swimsuit can be a huge advantage. This feature can help you stay comfortable and avoid getting chilly after your workout. It also helps if you go to the pool regularly, as your swimsuit can dry quickly after washing, ready for your next session.
Now that you know what to look for, let's explore some of the best swimsuits for aqua aerobics:
