Fat Burning Water Cardio Workout
I admit…I had a hard time with this water cardio workout.
As you know, I always say to get out of your comfort zone in all areas of your life. Well, even though I am a very “confident” swimmer, my swimming stroke techniques and water cardio skills are less than perfect.
In order for me to continue to develop in all areas of fitness, I need to start incorporating more water cardio workouts into my weekly routines.
With this in mind, I shot this fat burning water cardio workout for you to try. Trust me, it may look easy on video…but it’s going to put you to the limit.
Welcome to the Water Cardio Workout Video:
This workout is going to challenge your conditioning levels as well as your muscles as I’ve thrown in a few body weight exercises into the mix.
Here’s how the Water Cardio Workout is structured:

I tried it yesterday afterwork. How can I said that… IT’S A KILLER!!!! It’s been a while since I felt a workout beat me like that. My pectoral, shoulders and especially my triceps was killing me and did for the rest of the night. I still feel them today. And all that in only 1 circuit and about 40 minutes including the preparation. By the way the wall crawl is not in the printable version
.
I adapted to my pool since I have a round aboveground. So one lap for a full circle. At one point I remember telling to myself while swimming “Since when I have a olympic pool size?” In reality it’s just a 18ft!!!
Can’t wait to do it again next week and to try your other workout I downloaded.
Thanks a lot my fitfluential friend!!!
Awesome work! Results are on the way!
