- Use with any drill, but excellent for your kick sets
- Fill with ping pong balls for more resistance
- Comfortable to wear and easy to use with a quick tightening strap. The closed bottom prevents the bag from riding up around the ankle
- Choose the PB25 for medium resistance, best suited for ages 11+ or the PB40 for medium-hard resitance best suited for ages 13+
- Use them as carry bags for your gear! Carry your equipment, wet suit, or towels to allow them to dry.
The most versatile resistance system ever created!
Use on feet, calves, forearms, hips, parachute, & kickboard drag!
On Feet:
- Kick at the surface with power
- Reduce knee flexing
- Power your kick from your hips
- Add drag for pull sets
- Trains to hide kick on pull sets
- Great on timed sets
- Close the bottom strap for harder workout
On Calves:
- Completely NEW way to feel and train the kick!
- Restricts knee bend
- Add drag for pull sets
- Fires up your Breast kick
For Breast Kicking (bags on feet or Calves):
- Power the breast kick
- Hide breast recovery
- Help finish whip on Breast kicking
- Increase calf awareness
On Forearms (hand out or in Fist):
- Power the stroke and recovery
- Build recovery muscles and speed
- Increase recovery speed
- Improve ‘high elbow’ or EVF Catch
As Skirt:
- Use strap belt through both bags for a ‘full skirt’
- Leave bags ‘open’ for light resistance
- Close both ends of bags for medium resistance
- Add paddles and other non-floating gear inside bags for high resistance
- Use only 1 bag to target hips on only 1 side of body
- Encourage ‘high hips’ by placing 1 bag on rump for free/fly/breast
- Encourage ‘high hips by placing 1 bag on front for backstroke
As Parachute:
- Use 1 strap belt around waist and the other strap belt to attach to 1-2 bags as parachute
- Add non-floating items into bags to tailor drag resistance to your needs
- Can easily match the resistance of any size parachute
- Combine half skirt and 1 parachute bag for high hips and high resistance
On Kickboard (Note only the PB40 size fits on Kickboards, not PB25)
- Slide a Power Bag over the nose of most standard kickboards (tighten straps as needed)
- Leave front of bag open to add resistance to normal kicking
- Insert a pull buoy or other items into the bag on the front for high resistance
- Add 1 strap belt around your waist and use other strap belt to drag the kickboard behind you
- Drag over your feet to prevent kick from breaking surface for more power
- Drag over your thighs to prevent thighs from breaking surface when breast kicking on back
Easy to Use:
- Comfortable on ankles
- Quick tightening strap
- Ability to close bottoms prevents them from riding up around the ankle on breast kicking
Each set of Power Bags Include:
- 2 bags
- 2 strap belts
- Each bag has 2 straps – 1 red non-elastic (ideal for around ankles) and 1 black elastic (best for the top of calves or over elbows)
2 sizes
- Light (PB25)
- Heavy (PB40)
Light
- Medium resistance
- Ideal for timed sets
- Best for ages 11+
Heavy
- Medium-to-Hard resistance
- Great for most any workouts
- Best for ages 13+
Instructions:
On Feet
- Use the red non-elastic strap around ankles for strongest hold
- Close the bottom strap for harder workout
- Close the bottom strap for breast kicking (so they don’t ride up leg)
On Calves
- Use black elastic strap at top of calves to ensure it won’t slide down
- Tighten red strap on ankles
On Forearms
- Use black elastic strap over elbows to ensure it won’t slide down
- Tighten red strap on wrist (hands free method)
- Or bundle the open end in your fist (for more power and technique method)
Full Skirt
- Place 1 strap belt through both bags and attach belt to your waist
- Slide bags around so one is in the front and one is in the back
- Close all bag ends for more resistance
- Or use just 1 bag (front or back) to encourage high hips (swimmers will naturally force hips up to reduce resistance)
Parachute
- Place one strap belt around waist. Use the second belt as a pull strap (hooked to 1-2 bags)
- Add non-floating items inside bag(s) for more resistance
- Combine half skirt and parachute bag for higher hips and more resistance
Kickboard Uses:
- Slide 1 Power Bag over front of kickboard to add resistance to kick sets
- Add pull buoy inside the Power bag, under the board for more resistance
- To position kickboard above knees for breast kicking, tighten stopper on kickboard bag and hook the tow belt below stopper.
- Drag kickboard over the feet behind you to add more power to kick with less knee bend (feet can’t break surface)
- Drag kickboard over thighs for kicking breast on the back to keep the thighs flat behind body
Care and Maintenance:
- Hang Bags to dry between uses
- Limit direct sun exposure
- Strap Belts are best stored looped together so they don’t get tangled
