I put a 10' pool in my garage and tether swam for about 6 weeks earlier this year. .. I think my arm strength improved but everything below the belt got worse. I say this because when I finally got back in a pool I was so slow and had to focus on kicks with snorkel and kicks on back to improve. It's still a work in progress. .. I feel like I've lost everything I gained last fall.. In any case I will incorporate your workout in any future tether workout. The key is to keep working from the waist down .

[@FaresKsebati]

Great insight! The tether definitely isn't quite the same as your average pool swim, but it's great for these quarantine times!

[@extrastout1741]

I've had no issue with it quite the opposite but then again I kick pretty hard to the point that my coach tells me off. I guess if u don't it is easy to rely too much on arms.

[@adamoxner7732]

Snorkel seems like a good idea - you could really zone out without walls 😌

[@FaresKsebati]

Full zen mode...

Butterfly with the tether is such a challenge! Looking strong!

[@fksebati]

I love swimming with the tether! Great way to swim in the backyard pool!! 🏊‍♂️

[@FaresKsebati]

Such a great workout!

I'm excited, my husband just installed mine today. We have 3 young boys they were just as excited as I was to try it out!!! Since a lap pool was not an option, I was so excited to get one if these!!;

[@FaresKsebati]

That’s awesome! Happy swimming!

What has been your experience using the tether while swimming?

[@carolcaldasl]

I've never tried it, but this video made me want to give it a go!

[@FaresKsebati]

It's pretty fun, we recommend it!

Hi, I've never tried tethered swimming but used to train for masters' in the UK. I'm just wondering whether the lower back is the best attachment point for the tether. What about using two lighter tethers on either side of the hips, half way around from front to back? Of course the tethers would have to be splayed out so as not to interfere with the kick. Then the tethers would not be tending to raise the head and sink the legs which is already something of a problem with all strokes

I bought static swim gadget from France. Amazing equipment to swim in the backyard pool. Luv it !

[@LifeisbetterwithaMalinois]

Great video! Going to give this a go😊

[@paigewalters1746]

I would love to try one of these!

[@FaresKsebati]

Do it!!!

[@iang7007]

You have several intervals in your workout. How do you track them while swimming? Does the app beep at you and can you hear it in the water? And how do you integrate that with your apple watch? Thanks :)

[@TheNeniux89]

Hi!! What’s the minimum length the pool can be? What about width? Thanks in advance

[@sofieamarylis7808]

Which belt are you using? is it this one? the Basic Stationary Swim Trainer?

[@temporarilyjosh]

Have you tried swim jets? How does it compare?

[@sehijauwarnadaun3241]

So good

[@paulcrawford5153]

saw a vid with tethered feet.. flippers .. seems would cause less stress on joints

[@cangrejopendejo4909]

Lmao I thought this was just a Simpsons joke.

[@Kira-Nerys]

I don't feel right...

[@kolaAlakija]

What’s the length of your cord. I got a 4 meter. But haven’t tried it yet.

[@humbertohernandez4645]

Question: what brand of resistance training bell are you using?

[@sharonbartsch3258]

can you actually feel the prompts from your watch when it is time to change up??

[@FaresKsebati]

Yes!

[@09ironman1]

Where you get belt and cord

[@Believer110]

I've never swim at all.. and I wanna learn how to swim... is tethered swimming good for beginners?

[@FaresKsebati]

It's never too late to learn how to swim! It's probably best to move on to tethered swimming once you learn all the strokes, forward movement, and a good feel for the water, however.

[@nafisyanie]

Yes, better late than never. I recommend you to learn. I joined swimming class with my friend, only both of us 26 years old during that time, others are 4 to 10 years old. 😆😆😆

[@Believer110]

@@FaresKsebati thank you very much 😊

[@Believer110]

@@nafisyanie i wanted to learn how to swim because I wanted to improve my cardio.. I'm a college wrestler and my cardio is very awful I get exhausted easily... but yeah better late than never
