Aquatic Fitness: Answers to the 9 Most Frequently Asked Questions
Aquatic fitness has gone from being a spa novelty to one of the most complete and safe disciplines in the world of training.
It combines strength, cardio and wellness in a low-impact environment, ideal for all ages and levels.
However, many people still have doubts before trying it or investing in an aquatic machine.
At Aquatic-Fit.com, a store specializing in professional aquatic fitness equipment for POOLBIKING, we answer frequently asked questions to help you discover if this type of training is right for you.
💧 1. What exactly is aquatic fitness?
Aquatic fitness consists of performing physical exercises in the water, taking advantage of its natural resistance to tone muscles, improve strength, and increase cardiovascular capacity.
Unlike land-based training, water reduces joint impact and allows you to work out intensely, but without pain or risk of injury.
In short: aquatic fitness allows you to train more, get injured less, and enjoy yourself more.
🏋️ 2. Does training in the water really burn fat?
Yes, a lot!
The density of water multiplies resistance up to 12 times compared to air, forcing the muscles to work harder.
In addition, by maintaining body temperature, the body burns more calories to balance itself.
With a 20-minute session of Aquabike or aquatic elliptical , you can burn between 300 and 600 calories , depending on the intensity.
👉 At Aquatic-Fit.com You'll find equipment like the POOLBIKING ONE PLUS or the POOLBIKING ORBITAL , perfect for effective and safe cardiovascular workouts.
⚙️ 3. What depth should the pool be?
Most aquatic machines are designed for pools with a depth of between 1.10 and 1.40 meters .
This range allows the water to cover the torso up to the chest, ensuring a stable position and optimal resistance.
💡 In addition, many POOLBIKING models, such as the POOLBIKING MONACO , PARIS , TENERIFE , BERLIN , IBIZA , VERACRUZ , and EVOLUTION , have adjustable height , allowing them to be easily adapted to different pool depths.
🦵 4. Can I do aquatic fitness if I have knee or back problems?
Absolutely yes!
Water reduces the load on the joints by up to 80%, making it the best option for people with injuries, joint pain, or in the process of recovery.
Physiotherapists and rehabilitation centers use equipment like the POOLTREKKING MEDICAL to improve mobility, strength, and coordination without impact .
⏱️ 5. How long should I train to see results?
With just 30 minutes of training, three times a week , you'll notice a great improvement in endurance, strength, and overall well-being.
Consistency is key, but aquatic fitness offers visible results faster than conventional training, as the body works against constant resistance in all movements.
🧠 6. Is it only for seniors or for rehabilitation?
No. Although aquatic fitness is perfect for rehabilitation, it is also an advanced tool for sports training and physical performance .
In fact, professional players like Cristiano Ronaldo or the England national team players use it for active recovery and cross-training .

🌊 7. What maintenance do the machines require?
