Has anyone heard of this technique or used it in swim practices?
It seems to do nothing for me other than takes 2 min to do a 50 !!
I would rather use small fins or just use my own 2 feet !
I think it gives a performance boost when you take them off. Like swimming with fists or like taking off the bat weights on deck in a baseball game. You can swing harder, or maybe you just think you can? not sure. I also used to warm up with a football before a softball game and it madet the softball feel like a baseball and you could throw it harder.
I think it just adds variety to a workout and you can raise awareness of your legs and feet and how they propell your stroke.
