Description

Riding a stationary bike provides a great workout for the lower body’s major muscles (gluteals, quadriceps, hamstrings) reinforces cardio-respiratory capacity and burns major calories. But stationary biking in the open air can be uncomfortable and cause stress on the body. That’s why Jointec has paired the advantages of cycling with the soothing qualities of water exercise to bring you a fat burning workout that promises low fatigue and no joint pain! Check out all the reasons why Jointec’s Aquabike allows you to reap the benefits of an intense cardio workout, including muscle toning and decreased cellulite without the negative impacts of open air cycling.

The advantages of water exercise:
  • Weightlessness: the body weighs 1/5th of its weight underwater.
  • Warm water is relaxing and stimulating – it slows the heart rate down by 10%.
  • The hydrodynamic resistance of water allows for easy and painless pedaling. Acceleration increases the energy expenditure without putting unnecessary stress on the joints.
  • The hydrostatic pressure dramatically improves circulation to stimulate the elimination of lactic acid, the chemical compound responsible for the feeling of fatigue. Aquabikers are left with a sensation of complete well-being

    Why is Aquabiking so effective against cellulite?
  • Pedaling underwater generates a constant whirlpool massage, which breaks down the orange peel appearance of cellulite.
  • The hydrostatic pressure mobilizes the fat and eliminates it in the blood stream.
  • Underwater exertion burns stubborn fat, reducing cellulite at a faster rate.

    • Specifications

    • 2 vertical settings: for the seat and the handlebar based on the height of the rider (5' to 6'7") and for the base of the bike depending on the water depth (3'7" to 5'). Please contact us to inquire about a longer base option for a deeper pool
    • The shaped flaps located under the pedals create resistance by acting as flywheels. The resistance varies according to the speed of pedaling
    • Movements are perfectly smooth
    • Pedals with foot straps (water shoes are recommended)
    • Perfect stability, very large base equipped with suction cups for an optimal grip and the protection of liner, PVC and tile floors
    • Double protection against corrosion: passivated 316 L marine grade stainless steel frame and a red thermoplastic coating (also for better visibility in the pool)
    • Wheels: the front wheels allow you to easily move and pull out of the pool your Optima bike
    • Maintenance: The bike does not require any particular maintenance in waters with a controlled pH of 7.2 to 7.4, check regularly the condition of the consumables (suction cups, feet straps and saddle)
    • Instructions included with the bike
    • Shipped with a Coaching DVD that includes 30 aquabiking exercises for all levels of fitness
    Note: If the bike is used in waters very high in chlorine, salt or minerals, it needs to be regularly sprayed with the Antirust marine delivered with the bike.
