Speedo
The Speedo swim brand is one of the most famous. So what are their training paddles like?
Paddles are a great swimming training aid. They produce more resistance in the water, which makes them great for strengthening your upper body. They will help you get more feel for the water, so you'll improve your technique and have more fun training with them.
The paddles are lightweight, ergonomically shaped and designed to fit comfortably and allow you to swim well in them. The paddles have holes on their surface that make you feel the water nicely while not producing as much resistance. Personally, I like this better on the paddles because my hand doesn't slip and I can focus on my technique and swimming. For the more demanding swimmers, I have good news. Although the Speedo Tech Paddles are suitable for swimmers of all levels, they are amazingly stiff so you can push yourself hard with them. As for putting them on, it's very easy and after a few practices, it will only take you a few seconds.
With the silicone straps, you can comfortably adjust the paddles so that they don't pressure you anywhere and at the same time the paddles don't fall out of your hand. I personally was pleased with how quick and easy the adjustment is, so you can adjust the straps even during your workout.
In short, the paddles shouldn't be missing from your swim gear. They will push you forward and it doesn't matter what level of swimmer you are.
Here are a few tips for the end
Choosing the paddles: they should extend 10-20% over the palm of your hand, but if you are new to the paddles, feel free to choose a smaller size
