I like to swim with fins some days, I have the zoomers and some regular fins. I notice when I swim finless that I feel slow as a snail.If I have been using the fins for a couple of days. I know some swimmers that only use fins as thats the only way they have been able to learn, to them I say great what ever works for exercise but have noted to them that they should at least be able to swim finless to get out of the pool for safety if they fell into water anywhere.

It's not the equipement in itself, but how it's used.
If a person is using the equipement in order to put less effort into something, they are only cheating themselves.... using it in a destructive manner.
On the other hand, equipement can also work well in constructive ways, in making things possible, or harder, or correct things, or isolate certain movements.
I think equipement in workouts is just fine, as long as one is honest with themselves why they are using it... and if they're not honest with themselves... there's a saying 'ignorance is bliss'...
