游泳, and breaststroke in particular, are excellent ways to tone and strengthen the chest muscles while also working the 肩膀. But there are also many more chest exercises at home you can do in your swim spa.

胸部按压和反向飞行
Have your hand paddles at the ready for these two chest and back exercises. The chest press works the pectoral muscles as well as the arms, 肩膀, core and back to provide a complete upper body workout.

Upping the speed of the water flow and standing closer to the current will increase the resistance as you improve your strength and become more accustomed to this workout.
Additional chest exercises for the pool

Using your outer chest and back muscles, push the hand paddles forwards and backwards in small motions that move just enough to feel the resistance.
- 手臂向后旋转: Bend one leg in front of the other so that your 肩膀 are in the water and keep your other leg straight behind you. Hold your hand paddles in front of your torso with both arms together. Then pull your closed arms together all the way to your torso and spread your arms out as you push the hand paddles forward in a circular motion. Then close your arms straight again.
