Swimmers of all levels and abilities can visit the ‘Get Speedo Fit’ website, www.getspeedofit.co.uk, where tutorial videos, workout plans, challenges and equipment make up what Speedo hopes is a one-stop solution to help swimmers get the most out of logged pool time.
“We firmly believe that swimming is the best and most effective way to get fit,” said Elise Barrett, Speedo Brand Manager for the UAE and GCC.
“By encouraging people to try swimming, or taking a different, more challenging approach to their regular training, and arming them with tools to do so, we are hoping to help individuals lead healthier, more active lives.”
Speedo’s guide includes tips on which swimwear and training aids you can use. Here are some products you can check out.
Speedo Pinnacle Kickback and Pinnacle V Jammer
Developed following intensive research by Speedo’s global research and development team, Aqualab, the suits help to support your body position.
This will help you to actively improve your technique, whilst stabilising your core and activating the muscles for a longer, stronger swim stroke.
