Description of exercise Floating bicycle exercise is a low-impact aerobic workout that involves pedaling on a stationary bike while partially submerged in water. This exercise is typically performed in a pool or other body of water that is deep enough to allow for full leg extension while pedaling. The resistance of the water provides a challenging workout for the legs, while the buoyancy of the water supports the body and reduces impact on the joints. This makes it a great exercise option for those with joint pain or injuries. The constant movement of the legs also helps to improve cardiovascular endurance and strengthen the lower body muscles. Floating bicycle exercise can be modified to suit individual fitness levels and is a fun and refreshing way to stay active.
