9 Ways To Work Out In Water (That Aren't Swimming)

Working out in the summer?! As if you aren't hot enough already! Done wrong, your summer sweat sessions can feel like pure dehydrating torture. Done right, you can find a seasonal activity that feels more like fun than fitness.

Here are some of our favorite water workouts (no lap swimming necessary!) and how much you can expect to burn. What's your favorite water workout? Tell us in the comments!
