Slim Down in a Splash: Pool Workout

Pike Scull

Targets: Abs, hips, and arms

• Standing in shallow end of pool, simultaneously sit back into water, treading with hands by sides, and lift both legs together so that you fold at the hips (like a jackknife) and your body forms a wide V, with head and toes just above surface.
• Maintaining V position, move cupped hands in small circles by hips to tread water and propel yourself forward (sculling) down length of pool for 30 seconds.

Tip: If your toes start sinking under the water, widen the angle of the V and tighten your abs.
