A training system is provided herein that includes a training device and a timing device. The training device includes a frame, one or more pulleys operably coupled with the frame, and a cable routed through the one or more pulleys. The timing device is coupled to the training device and includes a housing operably coupled with the training device, a sensor configured to detect motion between a first position and a second position, and a computing system positioned within the housing and operably coupled with the sensor. The computing system is configured to calculate a time between the first position and second position. The calculated time is provided on one or more displays of the timing device.

A swimming machine is delineated comprising a water driver for generating a directed flow of water and a housing adapted for receiving the water driver. An adjusting assembly is disposed above the housing and coupled to the housing via an adjustable connector that allows the housing and the adjusting assembly to move relative to each other to set the housing at a desired depth in a pool. A hanging assembly is coupled to the adjusting assembly such that the adjustment assembly can hang on an upper edge of a pool. The swimming machine further includes a supporting assembly independent of the adjusting assembly that is coupled to the housing to move therewith and is disposed below the hanging assembly. The supporting assembly contacts against the inner wall of the pool to support the body.

A buoyancy-adjustable swim training vest for a user has a polymer-neoprene fabric formed garment member designed to substantially circumscribe the user's torso from neck to waist. A lower front of the vest has a front cover coupled to the vest and is vertically liftable. A back portion has a right side and a left side elastic wing members extending from a lower back portion designed to wrap frontward around the user's torso and detachably couple by respective hook and loop assemblies to each other, the vest, and the front cover, all coupled beneath the cover. An at least one polymer strap may be coupled detachably and adjustably by a latch to a buckle disposed on a lower edge of the front of the vest. At least one substantially sealable back pocket is disposed on an outer surface of the lower back portion of the vest designed to hold removable buoyant pads.

A Exercise Pool is disclosed herein having a rigid frame modular in design to allow for improved delivery and assembling. As shown the system may be configured with a box like structure providing containment of the flow head and may be configured with a removable deck having an air gap built in. As disclosed the treadmill swimming pool system as its general configuration is safer for users as it inhibits and/or eliminates hair and body entrapment. As disclosed it has a balanced flow which better replicates or reproduces actual swimming conditions for an enhanced user experience. The propulsion system may be controlled with a variable frequency drive (VFD) to allow for improved swimming conditions and control of same.

The present invention relates to a swimming and aquatic exercise system and a method of use thereof. The exercise system includes a modified vest that has a ring rotatably affixed to a back portion of the vest. The vest has adjustable straps and a waist belt to secure the vest around a swimmer. A rope is removably attached to the ring using a cord hook wherein the opposite end of the rope is fastened to an anchor or any other fixed point around a pool. In use, the vest is worn by a swimmer to enable the swimmer to perform a full body aquatic workout while the fastened rope prevents the swimmer from advancing forward, and therefore enables the swimmer to swim and perform water exercises in place without getting in the way of other users of the pool.
