Possibly the most important capacity of the HYDRORIDER Aquabike is its benefits to limbs and joints. The HYDRORIDER Aquabike allows you to take part in a class and receive the benefits of exercise whilst not damaging but strengthening your weakened joints and/or limbs.
As mentioned above the properties of water allow you to benefit from exercise in a number of ways but specifically they may benefit limbs and joints through:
- The Buoyancy effect of water
- The impact on your joints is reduced to the point where it can almost be removed.
- Flexibility around a joint can be increased and the water supports all the joints in the body.
- Provides support for those with special medical conditions such as arthritis and those with joint alignment problems
- Density of water
- Risk of injury to ligaments, tendons, muscles and joints is dramatically reduced because they are supported by the density.
