When my daughter joined the neighborhood swim team, she had to purchase a pair of Speedo Woman's Vanquisher Goggles as part of her equipment. According to the package, these are classified as competition quality goggles. From the looks and feel of them they seem to be very well made compared to the cheap ones we have always purchased in the past. The part around the lenses and the stra...

When I began swimming, I had a big problem with getting water in my ears.  Even though I sometimes wore ear plugs, water still occasionally found its way into my ear canal.  I have a terrible time getting water out of my ear, and would usually end up with a sloshing sound in my head for hours until it finally dribbled out. I found Swim-EAR soon after one particularly long episode with...

I had some swimming lessons during my college years, our teacher used to sell us this cloth swimming cap and I really hate it because not only does it not keep my hair the after smell is really bad.  I had to invest with a better cap, something that will stay put in my head and will keep my hair away from my face whilst swimming. I have window shopped for sporting goods shop but being in c...

Getting water in my ears is the thing that bothers me the most about swimming.  The sound and feel of water sloshing around by my brain is far too distracting for me to perform well.  When I began swimming to train for a triathlon, ear plugs were one of my first purchases. The rubber earplugs that Speedo makes have worked the best for me.  They have flanges on them, so can be cut...

I've been doing water aerobics for several years, and I've used a variety of shoes. I started out with regular water shoes that you'd wear to the beach. While these protected my feet from the rough floor of the pool, they did nothing for my workout. If you are going to be serious about water aerobics, you are going to need some good shoes. Speedo water aerobics shoes look and feel l...

When I first got into triathlons, I began to swim more and more.  At first I used a traditional rubber swim cap to hold my hair back in the pool.  However, it was really difficult to get on and off, and I generally lost a handful of hair in the process. I decided to try a lycra swim cap, and bought a Tyr.  It is extremely comfortable and very easy to get on and off.  It neve...

When I think water, and I think exercise, it is usually not associated with the word "fun"...but what if there was something out there that DID associate those words together? There is, and it is called The Aviva Splash Zone. The Aviva Splash Zone is a mini-waterpark in your own backyard, of course only if your backyard has a pond or backs up to a lake. The fun component is a given, b...

Back in November my 7 year oldest son got tubes in his ears.  He was fine with it until he realized that he was not able to swim with them.  We have ear plugs for the bath, but I thought they might fall out in the swimming pool, so I went on a hunt and found this product.  It comes with 2 pair of putty ear plugs, and then a stretchy band that fits around his head to keep the...
