AquaRunning is running, water-style: wearing a flotation belt, you run in deep water without ever touching the bottom. The water’s resistance multiplies the muscular effort while buoyancy protects your joints. An intense cardio session, accessible to everyone, even if you’ve never run before!

AquaRunning (also known as aquajogging) reproduces running movements in the water, with the body immersed up to the shoulders. Supported by a flotation belt, you alternate running phases, high knees, bounding strides and sprints, to music and guided by your coach.
Water is almost 800 times denser than air, so every stride works the legs, glutes and core intensely, while buoyancy removes all impact. The result: up to twice as many calories burned as in a regular jog, without the strain on your joints. Ideal for runners returning from injury or in recovery, and for anyone who wants effective cardio without getting hurt.
