Circuit training #3
This is an
Aquatic pattern from
www.turnstep.com.
(pattern 16963)
Place the 4 pages in a plastic covering and place at 4 corners or your pool (they can be farther apart for more room). Do each activity for 1 minute each before you rotate. When they have rotated 4 times, move to the next exercise on the sheet. Make sure you explain an exercise if needed so people don't get to confused (I tried to keep it self explanatory). It is a lot of fun and keeps them participant moving and working a different muscle group each time! It takes about 25 - 30 minutes to do and it is a great filler. I hope it helps. I am going to give you all all 3 of the circuit workouts.
P.S. The endurance sections are with noodles and the core and upper body workouts are with the weight bouys. Here is the third one.
