Finis Pulling ANKLE Strap Band Swim Strength Training Equipment 1.05.052.104 NEW

Description

The Pulling Ankle Strap is a natural rubber strap that is worn around the ankles to eliminate kicking. Ideally used with the standard pull buoy (available in our eBay store), the Pulling Ankle Strap shifts the focus so that the swimmer can build upper body strength. The Pulling Ankle Strap comes one universal size that fits all ankles.
A band tends to pull your legs downwards which in turn can reduce the amount of rotation in your stroke. Higher drag and reduced rotation can increase the load on your shoulders so we strongly suggest limiting the distance you swim whilst wearing one. 8x 50m is a sensible maximum for a single session, even for advanced swimmers.
Treat swimming with a band like a drill, swimming over short distances of 25 or 50m at a time. The idea is to swim quickly with good rhythm and focus on areas of your stroke which will stop the legs sinking lower in the water. We suggest starting with 4x 25m with 15 seconds rest between each 25m, building up the distance slowly as you become more competent wearing it.
