7 Tips For Swimming With A Swim Tether

If you're swimming with a swim tether or bungee cord, these 7 tips will help you get more out of your workout. I like the StretchCordz brand of tether available on Amazon (https://amzn.to/2Vix49e).

1. Attach it high

2. Mix it up

Use front scull, kick against the wall or different strokes to keep it interesting.

3. Use a snorkel

4. Track time or strokes

5. Short reps and sessions

6. Change speed

7. Underwater exercises
