Frequently asked questions

What is acquastep and who is it for?

+
Acquastep is an aerobic workout carried out on a submerged platform in the pool: it combines step movements with the resistance of the water. It suits adults looking for cardio that is effective yet gentle on the joints. At the GiZeta pool in Grandola it takes place in heated water at 32 °C.

Do you need to know how to swim to do acquastep?

+
No: you work in shallow water, standing on the platform, with the water at chest height. You do not need to know how to swim, you just need to feel comfortable in shallow water.

What benefits does it have over traditional step?

+
The water supports the body and reduces the impact on the knees and back, while its resistance increases the muscular work. You get a cardio and toning workout with far less joint stress than step on land.

When does acquastep take place at GiZeta?

+
In the current season, acquastep is scheduled on Friday evenings at the Grandola pool. Times may change for organisational reasons: message us for confirmation of the up-to-date slot.

Do you need a medical certificate?

+
Yes, for members aged 6 and over a non-competitive medical certificate is required. As this is a cardio activity, it is also a safeguard for you.
