The repetition level of all exercises should be determined by a qualified trainer whenever possible. As an average, 10 movements on each exercise would be considered a light work-out that would benefit the cardio-vascular system and generally improve muscle tone. It is important when exercising to keep the beach straight and position the legs to stabilize the body in a comfortable stance. If pain occurs during the exercise, stop immediately and seek professional advice.

Note: a 5 minute warm-up and warm-down (including stretches) is recommended when using Aqua Exercisers.
