One way to beat the heat during the summer, and really help your back is to get in the pool and get some exercise. Water takes a load off your joints, which allows you to work longer and target the core posture muscles, the ones that really help support your back.

You may be wondering what makes water exercise better than other types of back exercise programs. There are numerous benefits to exercising in the pool, from strengthening to decreased pain and exercise motivation.
