Summer isn’t just swimsuit season—it’s strength season. And the best part? You don’t need a gym to build muscle and burn fat.

Water offers resistance that strengthens your muscles while cushioning your joints, making it ideal for all fitness levels. Here are 5 easy-to-follow, equipment-free pool workouts that target your entire body.

1. Resistance Walking Walk back and forth across the shallow end of the pool for 5 minutes. Add high knees or arm swings for more challenge.

2. Wall Squats Back against the pool wall, feet shoulder-width apart. Lower into a squat and hold for 30 seconds. Repeat 5 times.

3. Water Punches In shoulder-deep water, punch forward and across your body in fast reps for 1 minute. Engages arms, shoulders, and core.

4. Leg Lifts Hold onto the pool edge and raise each leg straight out in front. Alternate legs for 20 reps per side.

5. Treading Intervals Tread water as hard as you can for 30 seconds, then rest for 30. Repeat 5 times.

Water workouts build endurance, core strength, and confidence. Plus, they’re a fun way to beat the heat!
