Our coach doesn't give specific times or workouts to use the snorkel. I love mine but I'm not sure when it's the best time to use it? I have been using it at the end in the pull sets but can it be effectively used in main cardio focused sets?
Has anyone used a snorkel brand other than Finis? My Finis snorkel has given me years of great service, but at this point the headband is quite worn out and uncomfortable on my forehead. I know Speedo also makes one and there's an "MP" (Michael Phelps) branded one sold by Aqua Sphere.
P.S. I've never needed a nose clip while using my snorkel, but it sounds like plenty of people do. Probably depends on whether you can naturally breathe solely through your mouth or not.
