AquaJogger® Each day we answers questions about purchasing the correct AquaJogger belt. With several different AquaJogger belts to choose from it can be a bit confusing, especially when they all look alike! Basically, getting the best belt depends on two factors-sex and body composition, meaning the percentage of muscle to fat we have on our bodies. When we are in the water fat acts as an instrument of buoyancy. This means that if you have more body fat on your body, you are naturally more buoyant in the water. Often, we talk to individuals who are overweight and assume that they need a belt with more buoyancy to hold them up while they are in the water. In fact, the opposite is true. If you have more body fat, you are more naturally buoyant. Individuals who have less fat thus are less buoyant when they are in the water and will sometimes have a harder time staying afloat. It's these people, those who have less body fat, who may need a belt with more buoyancy. Women naturally carry more fat on their bodies than men. Below is a detailed description of each belt as well as a recommendation as to which belt is best depending on your body type and sex. Classic Belt The Classic belt, with its patented design, is our original model, a great belt for both men and women. The Classic highlights AquaJogger's original technology of increased lumbar buoyancy, allowing for a great abdominal workout. The Classic includes a "Getting Started Video and Poolside Workout Guide. Available in blue or purple. FIT Belt Designed exclusively for a woman, the FIT belt combines contoured and sleek features for enhanced fit, comfort and support during water fitness activities. Developed and tested by women, the AquaJogger FIT is streamlined for a woman's contoured shape and specific design needs. Recommended for waistlines up to 36", it includes a "Getting Started Video and Poolside Workout Guide. Available in blue or purple. SHAPE Belt New! Featuring the patented technology of the AquaJogger buoyancy belt. The Shape belt has been designed to reduce "ride up." The Shape belt is 4" longer than other AquaJogger belts, allowing for a more secure and comfortable fit. The Shape belt also features minimized buoyancy in the lumbar region, thus making it easier to maintain proper body posture. We recommend the Shape belt for apple shaped men and women whose waist measurement is 36" or larger. The Shape belt includes a "Getting Stared Video and Poolside Workout Guide. Available in yellow. It is not yet available in stores. Basic Belt The Basic belt is our economy model. Featuring the same patented design as our FIT belt, the Basic is firmer in construction. The Basic belt includes a Poolside Workout Guide and is available in blue. Pro Belt The Pro belt was designed for those of you with less body fat and/or larger body frames. The Pro features the same styling as the Classic belt but with 30% more buoyancy. As stated earlier, individuals who have less body fat and/or individuals who have large, slender frames (a man who is 6'3" and 180 lbs, for instance) tend to be less buoyant and thus need increased buoyancy. The Pro belt is a great belt for men and women. The Pro belt includes a "Getting Stared Video" and Poolside Handbook. Available in blue. Pro Plus The Pro belt with even more buoyancy, 20% more buoyancy than the Pro and 50% more buoyant than the Classic belt. This belt is best used by large athletes who have very little body fat, a professional football player, for instance. The Pro Plus is available in blue. Jr. Belt A revolutionary "learn to swim" aid for children .AquaJogger's patented design properly positions a child's legs at the correct kicking angles, with arms completely free to learn a variety of strokes, leaving the head and neck unrestricted for correct breathing technique. Recommended for children ages 4-12. Includes Splash! Club Gamebook. Available in Blue or Purple. Wondering what to do if you feel that you may have the wrong belt for your body type? Or maybe you are still not sure which belt would be best for you? If you have already purchased an AquaJogger belt and feel another belt would be better, you might consider visiting a community pool in your area to see if they have the AquaJogger belt model you are interested in trying. If you want to place an order for a belt but are not sure it's the right belt for you please feel free to contact us via e-mail info@injuredreserve.com or by Request Information form. One final tip, when wearing your AquaJogger belt, make sure to tightly position the belt around your waist before getting in the water. Once in the pool, the belt will loosen slightly so do make sure that the belt is quite snug around the waist to help reduce "ride-up." Accessories AquaRunners RX New! |
