Kinematical characterization of the basic head-out aquatic exercise “Sailor’s Jigs”

Massive research has been produced throughout the last decades in order to be@er understand the role of head-out aquatic exercises in populations’ health (Barbosa et al, 2009). Indeed, such studies aimed to characterize the physiological acute and/or chronic response of subjects performing head-out aquatic exercises. Moreover, the comprehensive knowledge about the biomechanical (i.e. kinematical) behavior performing this aquatic actvity is quite reduced.
