Therefore, water polo, swimming, and other aquatic exercises allow you to exercise your body thoroughly without giving up. This provides for long, fulfilling workouts.

While in the water, you are not allowed to touch the bottom of the pool, as it is one of the main rules of the game. This means your legs must be kicking constantly, treading water, in order to keep your upper body above water so that you may continue play the game.
