Swim cords with flat paddle handles

Ok, so someone posted this link a week or two ago to what appear to be some pretty good exercises to do with swim stretch cords:

What kind of cords are those? So far all of the ones I have found have some version of a small handle that you have to hold onto, rather than being able to practice with an open and flat hand as you want to when swimming. Does anyone know where to find these cords with the paddle handle?

They look similar to mine. StretchCordz. They come in different strengths.

There you go:

Unless you’ve got monster shoulders, go with the green ones. Of course, you can increase or decrease resistance by moving further from or towards your anchor point.

Thanks. That is exactly what I was looking for.

And I have shoulders like a 12 year old girl, so I think I will have to work up even to the green ones.

These are really great exercises! You should have strong shoulders in a couple months of diligent work. Good luck!
