RE : Fish Out of the Water?

We can only practice swimming skills in the water. No question about that. However, improving swimming fitness can be done both in and out of the water. The DrySwim Trainer could help improve swimming performance to some degree. The rotation of the hips, as demonstrated in the DrySwim Trainer video, provides the power behind every swim stroke and power is hand speed. Recent research has shown that hand force (hand speed) applied to the water is really generated by the rotation of the hips, and not by the muscles of the arm. Elite swimmers who were able to make modest increases in the acceleration of their hips doubled their peak hand force output.

There is nothing that you can do in the water that you can't do on the DrySwimTrainer. You can train distance or sprints. You can do long workouts or short ones. You can do drills including "the catch up" or "single arm drills". In fact, swimming on The DrySwim Trainer burns more fat than swimming the same workout in the water. It’s patented design forces athletes to conform to the proper body position and there for a foundation to train properly and exercise correctly using the correct technique necessary to pace smoothly without exerting unneeded energy.
