On this page we report about material and aids to make our sport even more varied.
We will test different equipment here in the future. In some cases we also receive material from manufacturers for testing. We also refer to manufacturers or suppliers to finance our site. Therefore we have to declare this whole area as advertising!
We will not introduce here any equipment that has not convinced us!
You are a manufacturer of triathlon, running or duathlon articles and would like to present your articles to a large audience!
Then just send us an email and we will have the article tested by several athletes/trainers!
for triathletes
In technical exercises, the professional and beginner alike are often distracted by their own breathing, a large part of the attention is needed for breathing. The athlete can no longer fully concentrate on the execution of the respective exercise.
With a swimming snorkel beginners and advanced can fully concentrate on the respective exercise or water position without being disturbed by their own body rotation. It also allows you to swim a longer distance in a relaxed way.
Beginners can first of all work on the water level and professionals can work on a specific problem.
The snorkel can be built in like paddles, PullBoy and fins in different training sessions.
for runners
Who hasn't heard from his doctor that swimming is the ideal sport for runners. Back and crawl swimming relieves the spine. The entire musculature as well as the cardiovascular system are challenged and supported. An improvement of the torso musculature, which especially runners need for long runs, is a nice side effect.
The regeneration after hard running units can also be stimulated by swimming.
The head position during breaststroke is not so good, as this leads to many problems. Now the objection of most runners is that they can't swim crawling.
The problem is usually the unusual breathing technique, a snorkel can help us with this.
How can a swimming snorkel help?
The swimming snorkel allows beginners to take a good position in the water without directly learning the unusual breathing technique. In this way, you can take advantage of the advantages of the ideal compensatory sport without being a super swimmer.
