Years ago, swimmers of all ages flocked to public pools to take a refreshing break from the summer heat. Frolicking in the water and swimming a few laps satisfied a craving for fun, provided a total-body workout, and offered a temporary escape from an otherwise stressful day.
Today’s fitness enthusiasts are as eager to find new and creative ways to enjoy their water experience as technology buffs are to stay current with the most modern gadgets.
Ever-evolving innovations in aquatic recreation are elevating the fun factor and the fitness challenge to new heights with pool climbing walls. Traditional climbing walls have been a popular feature at recreational facilities for years, but industry experts say adding them to pools has been gaining interest in recent years.
