Here's a question for you guys. Since I've been back in swimming, I've noticed alot more workouts contiaining the use of fins. When I used to swim in high school, we never used them. So really, what is the advantage of using fins during a work out and why would I want to use them? It seems like everytime I turnaround my workout says to kick with fins, or swim with fins. Any input on that would be much appreciated.

I swim 3500 yards three days a week - in 500 yard groups.
I like using the short fins too, for the reasons mentioned - and it is fun to swim at race speeds.
I usually swim 2000 yards with and then 1500 without.
Personally I like the Zoomers. I have the blue ones it this point, but I'm thinking about moving up to the red ones
