FINIS Bolster Swimming Paddles | Training
Master Your Stroke and Unleash Unprecedented Power with FINIS Bolster Paddles
Transform your performance in the pool with the FINIS Bolster Paddles, a revolutionary training aid designed for swimmers dedicated to perfecting their technique and building formidable strength. If you´re looking to move beyond simply pulling with your hands and start leveraging your entire arm for maximum propulsion, the Bolster Paddles are your essential tool. They are meticulously engineered to correct one of the most common and power-sapping habits in swimming: the dropped elbow.
The true secret to an elite-level pull lies in creating a large, stable surface area from your fingertips to your elbow. The Bolster Paddles promotes an early vertical forearm (EVF) that uses the entire forearm and hand during the pull. This forces you to engage your lats, chest, and shoulder muscles correctly, turning your arm into a single, unified paddle. Perfecting this technique with the Bolster Paddles encourages a high elbow and will lead to more efficient swimming. By maintaining this optimal position, you minimize drag and ensure every ounce of your effort translates into forward motion, helping you glide through the water faster than ever before.
Beyond technical refinement, the Bolster Paddles are also a great way to build upper body strength. The wide paddle design offers resistance throughout the pull and can be applied to all four strokes. This consistent resistance challenges your muscles through the entire pulling motion, developing the specific, functional power needed for a dominant swim. Feel the burn and know that you are building the strength that will carry you through the final lengths of a tough race or an intense practice.
The benefits of incorporating the Bolster Paddles into your training regimen are both immediate and cumulative. Using the Bolster Paddles overtime will improve entry, catch technique, pull and recovery. By instilling the principles of a forearm-driven stroke, these paddles help create powerful muscle memory that becomes second nature, even when swimming without them. Your catch will become more immediate, your pull more powerful, and your overall stroke more connected and fluid.
