Great video, thanks for this! I have worked with athletes of many disciplines (tennis, badminton, football/soccer, rugby...) and they keep coming back for more, especially when the gains become apparent. To break the monotony, I try to incorporate team activities to also enhance the team-bonding aspect. I'll try out a few of these movements in your video in my next hydro session. Thanks for sharing!
As a water aerobics instructor, l found your video interesting. While you exercised your clients, you did not use water aerobics equipment to optimize your desired results thru water exercises. We use bells, foam barbells,, noodles, gloves, wading belts and even balls to optimize performance. For example, when my clients do jabs and punches, we use the bells, which you can get in varying resistances. The bells provide resistance on the punch and the pull back. So your workout is continuous. I also use water gloves for resistance as another option when jabbing and punching. Second, l use the bells for jumps and leg lifts. I do exercises known as leap frogs with varying positions. One is a leap frog (or lateral, leg jump) 🎉where you tap the bells under the thigh as you jump. It ensures that the student actual jump, while it also exercises the arms with a downward thrust. I also do a knee lift, much akin to a jog, where the bells are tapped under one knee at a time, switching knees - the student has to push down, using shoulders and back, to get the bell under one kne; as they lift the leg in the jogging motion. Abs are used to stabilize the student in the run - a multilevel workout with one exercise. To optimize water exercise, the water should be mid-chest for 360 degree force for shallow water exercises. As a former basketball player and runner, l developed my own water aerobics training to complement my land training when l ran the Marine Corps Marathon. It relieved stress on my joints, enhanced my endurance, but l used all the water aerobics equipment to maximize my training and expand my range of exercises. This is a good start to what can be done in water to maximize athletic performance and reduce injuries. Kudos!
Here's the way I analyze it... Most men don't want to participate in something like this because they feel it's directed more towards A. Older people and senior citizens (I'm 66) B. Females C. Overweight or obese D. Recovering from some type of injury in which aquatic therapy helps in rehabilitation E. "Sissy men".
I agree with you, and it therefore becomes quite tricky convincing athletes to take part in such a pool program. The results that come out after a month or so of consistent workouts are just amazing!

What;s the difference with these and just general swimming? I dont really understand the efficiency of these beyond just swimming...
As someone with only a splash pool that you can't really swim laps in this is perfect for me
Then your trippin
Two water workouts you should check out:
Bas Ruten and Dr. Steven Davis (Hydro)
You can use Unflexal instructions to learn about workouts guys.
