Schwimmhandpaddel - Limettengrün

Hand paddles are used in swim training to help build upper body strength and improve stroke technique, specifically the 'pull' element. They create more resistance in the water, so when you pull, you're working harder, which strengthens your arms, shoulders, and back. Hand paddles also make it easier to feel the water, helping you refine your stroke mechanics. However, because they increase resistance, it’s important to use them with good form to avoid putting too much strain on your shoulders.

Yes, hand paddles can help build muscle, especially in your arms, shoulders, and upper back. Since they add resistance when you pull through the water, you have to work harder with each stroke, which strengthens your muscles over time. They’re great for improving power and endurance, but it’s important to use them with good technique to avoid straining your shoulders. Regular use can definitely make a difference in upper body strength.

Yes, you can use hand paddles for breaststroke, but for specific technique drills. Since breaststroke has a unique, sweeping arm motion, paddles can catch the water incorrectly and put extra strain on your shoulders if not used properly. They can help you focus on your pull technique and build strength, but it’s important to use the right size paddles and keep your form in check. If you're just starting with paddles, it's a good idea to take it slow and make sure your technique stays smooth and controlled.

Yes, hand paddles can increase your speed in the water by giving you more surface area to push against. This added resistance helps you generate more power with each stroke, allowing you to move faster. However, the main goal of using paddles is to improve technique and build upper body strength, so the speed boost comes from the extra force you're able to apply. Just keep in mind that paddles can put more strain on your shoulders, so it's important to use them with good form.

Hand paddles have holes to allow a small amount of water to flow through, offering slightly less resistance than paddles without holes. The holes help reduce the pressure on your shoulders and arms, making the paddles easier to control and less likely to cause strain.
