on 10/10/2009 1st - should have said - get your FEET off of the ground rather than "KNEES"
2nd - looked like she had the flotation belt on upside down!
3rd - I say - when jogging in water - ALWAYS bring the heels down - do not jog on toes. What is "flats of the feet?"

"Everyone knows that jogging is great exercise. What about if you have injuries in your knees,your hips, or there's nowhere to jog? Jogging is one of the many exercises that can be done in a pool. You simply can start out in the shallow end by jogging like normal, making sure you get your knees off the ground. Use very slow motion, going from one end of the shallow end to the other end of the shallow end, and back and forth. To make it more intense, grab a weight belt. The weight belt is great, because you can jog in 11 feet deep water without having to worry about treading water. While you're jogging, again make sure that your shoulders are upright. Your shoulders ribs and hips are all in line whenever you're jogging. So let's get in the water and start aqua jogging. When you're jogging, make sure that your ears, shoulders, and hips are all in a straight line. Make sure your head is up, and you're moving at a brisk, comfortable pace. You want to jog on the flats of your feet and not on your toes, whenever possible Keep moving. It's a great workout. Always remember to pump your arms too. Work the upper body as well. "
