Are you the proud owner of a swim spa?
Swim spas, also known as all-season pools and fitness pools, can provide a great addition to any home or garden space. This versatile spa can provide you and your loved ones with a convenient outlet for relaxation, recreation and entertainment.
In this article, we’re going to focus on recreation and take a closer look at how your all-season pool can help you to become more physically active with a spa exercise routine.
Set Your Goals
Goals are key to any exercise regimen. Once you know what you want for your physical and emotional health, it will be much easier for you to personalize a plan for physical activity.
Some fitness goals may include:
- Weight loss
- Stronger muscles
- Improving your health
- Improving your confidence
- Eased anxiety and improved mental health
Once you have set your goals, it’s important that you track your progress. Use a journal or an interactive mobile app for tracking, so that you can see what works for you and areas where you may want to make a few adjustments.
Swim Spa Exercises
Your all-season pool exercise routine should include a balance of cardiovascular, arm, leg, and core exercises. By including a combination of these exercises, you can enjoy a full-body workout that engages all of your muscles.
Cardiovascular
- Jogging in place
- Swimming
- Jumping jacks
Arms
- Wall push-ups
- Tricep dips
- Bicep curls
Legs

Your Routine
While each all-season pool exercise routine will differ from the next, we have organized a very basic routine to help you get started and will cover a variety of muscle groups.
- Warm-up: 5-10 minutes of light cardio
- Dynamic stretching: 5-10 minutes
- Strength training: 3 sets of 5 repetitions of your desired exercises
- Cardiovascular activity: 15-30 minutes
- Static stretching: 5-10 minutes
- Cool down & relax!
Depending on your goals, you may want to fit your all-season pool exercise regimen into your schedule anywhere from two to five times a week.
One of the most notable benefits of owning a swim spa is the versatility that it can bring to your lifestyle. You can enjoy a seamless transition from exercise, to relaxation, and then entertainment, all within one luxurious water feature.
