Toronto, Oct 31: Exercising in water is equally good for health as you do on land, says a study.




The study found that people who used an immersible ergocycle, basically an exercise bike in a pool, had just about the equivalent workout to using a typical stationary bike.

"If you can't train on land, you can train in the water and have the same benefits in terms of improving aerobic fitness," said Martin Juneau, director of prevention at the Montreal Heart Institute.
