Leg exercise using a noodle

To strengthen the leg muscles, tie a water noodle into a knot around the foot or water shoe. Stand with the back to the side of the pool in waist-high water, placing the arms on the edge of the pool for stability. Straighten the leg in front of you, and then flex the knee to about a 90-degree position.

Return to the starting position and repeat 12 to 15 times or until you're tired. Tie the water noodle into a knot around the other foot or water shoe and repeat with the other leg.
