I recently bought a pair of those web-handed gloves that increase resistance. I have used it during the warm-up phase of my workout (usually a 500 yard freestyle).
I bought them because I saw other people using them, but I am wondering if they really have any benefit. They seem to increase resistance slightly, and I feel like I am pulling more water, but on the other hand, it slows down my arm speed.
Also, I am a breaststroker and it felt pretty awkward when I used it for that stroke.
Any opinion, pro or con, on this particular swim gear?
