Abstract
A training device for competitive swimmers in the form of a drag producing belt adapted to be worn over the swimmer's regular suit or trunks. The drag producing belt adds weight and increases the resistance (drag) to the swimmer's movement through the water and thus helps in the development of the swimming muscles. The increased drag is caused by normally open ended pockets that are secured to the belt in such a manner that they act as scoops as the swimmer moves through the water. Water entering the pockets is impeded in flowing through them whereby the drag is created. The pockets are located on the belt so that the drag is distributed evenly on the swimmer with no imbalance tending to cause the swimmer to roll or dip.
