On February, 1 “Healthy Region — Healthy Russia” project was launched in Astrakhan. Astrakhan State University joined the interregional initiative and invited representatives of ASU faculties to celebrate the Health Day with water fitness.

The ASU challenge started at 10 a.m. Participants of the action called “Atop the Waves” could check their performance with the student project “Body Harmony”. Representatives of the Faculty of Physical Training & Sports prepared information booklets and helped to take measurements. Tape measure, weighing-machine, height meter, some calculations and everybody could get to know their body mass ratio and body tympanum. Compliance with the correct measurements is not only beauty industry requirements as any deviation may be a sign of health-related problems so it is very important to know the parameters of healthy body and keep an eye on the state of your organism.

After the informative action, the participants moved to physical exercises. On the Day of Joint Actions, Astrakhan State University held the water challenge. The students undertook water aerobics class under guidance of the coach Svetlana Pavlova. This sport is one of the most popular among those who want to live healthy lives.
