Much Improved Technique and Endurance
At mid-life, I started swimming about 2 years ago. I always had trouble with stoke technique and endurance. After having these swim paddles for a month, my endurance, arm rotation, technique and speed are vastly improved. These are better than imagined and I love having them.
They are sized correctly based on my hand measurement and stay firmly on my hands with a slight tug of the red band. During my workouts, I alternate every so often having the paddles on and off. I feel like I’m gliding through the water during the “off” laps.
Highly recommended for those who want to try something different but quite effective for their swim workouts.

They work well and probably the best paddles I’ve used, too.
I don’t find the rubber stripping on my wrist to be that comfy though and I wish they used a different material for that part. The paddles themselves are fine. I would suggest putting in some built-in slots for the thumb or middle finger or pinky fingers maybe and avoid that rubber tubing nonsense altogether. They would be perfect then, I think.

Swim paddles are worth the investment!
I bought swim paddles because they would provide a great arm workout for my swim practices. These paddles, if ordered correctly to size, will fit just right! Knowing what I know now, I’d even opt for a size larger so I could “grab” more water with each stroke. These paddles have plastic tube/strings to secure to your hand, and they do a good job of staying in place and not loosening up during swimming. Pay careful attention to them, and handle those plastic tubes with care (they may easily break if handled roughly). Swim paddles are seriously worth the investment no matter your dedication in swimming; they offer additional arm conditioning, and gaining extra strength/muscle never hurt anybody!

Arthritis
It didn’t occur to me that these are actually strength training tools. I got them because of arthritis in my hands. My fingers are weak and hurt quite a lot when I pull my stroke and the water bends my fingers back. The paddles let all my fingers work together as they are supported by the paddle. So the fat old man can keep swimming!

Works great – straps break too soon
These are great paddles for swimming and really develop strength. The only thing is the blue stretchy stuff used for the straps breaks down in the sun and chlorine and breaks rather quickly. Someone else suggested surgical tubing but I’ve found a good replacement with airline tubing used for aquariums and the like. (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000255NYQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) If you use it and have trouble feeding it thru, try a hairdryer or heat gun to soften the end a bit. It’s more rigid than the original blue stuff but lasts forever.
