The swim board allows you to build lower body strength by focusing solely on your kicks.


It will immobilize the legs and float the lower body.
By combining it with pads you will increase the muscular work of the upper body.


Choose very soft and small pads. You will discover new supports without the risk of injuring your shoulders.




The kickboard allows you to build up your lower body muscles by concentrating only on your legs. The less buoyancy the board has, the more muscle work you will get.


It will immobilize the legs and float the lower body.
By combining it with pads you will increase the muscular work of the upper body.


Start with size S pads, then increase the size when you feel more comfortable, so size M or L pads will require more power.You can also turn to finger pads.




If you prefer cardio sessions, choose fins with a short blade. This type of fin requires a good kicking frequency, which will reinforce the cardio work during your practice.

Fins with an open footbed allow the ankle and the entire foot to move more freely and therefore ensure greater freedom of movement.
Fins with a flexible blade ensure efficient and wide movement, very close to the natural movement of the swimmer.


However, the muscle strengthening of your lower body (buttocks, thighs and calves) will be less than with long fins.

For muscle strengthening, prefer fins with a long blade. The muscles of your legs and buttocks will be more involved with this type of fin.
The feeling of gliding and speed will also be greater with long-fin fins.
