Has anybody seen this? http://www.fitmaxipool.com/
I found it while looking for endless pools (too pricey for me).
Can you see benefit from using it? I’m an incredibly slow swimmer, so I have no clue.
it actually looks similar to what Endless Pool uses as a demo set up at expos to show off their Fastlane.
i would think that harness around your waist would teach you bad form. everyone “swimming” in the video seemed a little unnatural…
That’s kind of what I was thinking. There are similar products out there (straps/cords). Do any of them work, or do they all just mess with the “feel and position” of good form?
I’ve got an “aquatrainer” belt/cord and use it a few times a year. It actually works surprisingly well. The only problem (other than being even more boring than normal lane swimming) is that I have to “break” my wrists during the pull stroke to reduce the amount of resistance and maxing out the cord on every stroke. Other than that, it’s ok for a swim workout if you can’t get to a pool/lake.
