Joint stability and core strength can significantly impact your dive experience, especially when there is current or you are entering or exiting the water in full gear. One way to improve joint stability and core strength is to incorporate water into almost any traditional exercise that uses a bar or dumbbells. The basic premise is that moving water forces your body to use more stability. You can purchase hydro training equipment or make your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dynamic effect of water sloshing in your equipment can be surprising at first. Start with a light weight \u2014 10 pounds (4.5 kilograms) is recommended \u2014 and take some time to familiarize yourself with the motions. The exercises might feel awkward the first time you do them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The more momentum you build, the less control you will have, especially at the end of the movement. Let the water settle before you begin another exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
