People of all genders and ages should exercise regularly in order to keep their bodies and minds strong and able to move muscles and joints in every part with full efficiency. But for older people who are prone to arthritis or other health problems, they may have more limited exercise options. Here is a way to exercise in water for the elderly for everyone.
- Underwater leg raises.

Push-ups against the wall of the pool or aqua push-ups are exercises in the water that will help strengthen the muscles and strength in the arms, chest and shoulders of older adults without putting too much pressure on the joints.

Lifting dumbbells in the water is another water exercise that will help strengthen the upper body, especially the arms of the elderly. The must-have piece of equipment for this exercise is plastic water dumbbells, which are better suited to use in water than steel or metal dumbbells.
