Speedo Hydro Resistance Swim Glove Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased these Speedo Hydro Resistance Swim Gloves for working on my upper body strength and while improving my swim strokes, in my pool. Using these swim gloves while swimming gives my arms/shoulders a more effective workout which in turn increases my strength and improves my form. Using these while also using the Speedo pull buoy allows me to isolate the work to only my upper body while keeping my lower body comfortably still which increases the benefits to my upper body. Also useful for under water "strength training" by doing exercises like bicep curls, tricep kickbacks, etc. The gloves increase resistance in the water while the open finger tip holes, allows water to flow in/out keeping your hands comfortable and cool. The wrist strap is adjustable for a comfortable fit and for most people, your fingers are enclosed in the glove, the finger tip is open for comfort and breathe-ability. (Note: my husband has really long fingers and his do peek out a little at the tip)

While I was deciding which brand to purchase, I decided I really liked the design and available color choices of these gloves. As I have always been very pleased with the Speedo line of products, my decision was finally made to give this item a try. I am pleased to recommend these gloves and have enjoyed adding this item to my daily pool fitness workouts.

First thoughts with product and after 1st use:
* Quality feel and materials. Attractive design
* Good color choice available which coordinate with other Speedo training products
* Extremely comfortable to use
* Open finger tipdesign keeps hands comfortable and cool
* Customizable fit of the wrist, Velcro strap
* Excellent resistance for light/medium workout
* Easy to use, suitable for swimming & light strength training
* Dries quickly, rinse in fresh water after use

After using these gloves over the past couple of weeks, I am very pleased. I am able to use these for a variety of exercises and already see improvement in my strokes and arm strength, esp. through the shoulders. using them for resistance training post swim, I really got a good workout. This is one of those products I now consider essential for my workouts. Like most of the Speedo training equipment, these gloves color coordinate with other Speedo products. I purchased the pink/charcoal version and the colors are quite nice without being too flashy. Tastefully done.

If you are looking for a fun way to exercise, cross-train during these hot summer months, or really focus on arm workouts while improving your strokes, these gloves are a good investment. Add a Speedo Pull Buoy and you will get a VERY good upper body/arm workout. Speedo has lived up to their good name in this well designed and very attractive item. Highly recommended. NOTE: I will add to this review in the fall, with an update on how these gloves hold up to daily use throughout this Florida summer.
