Problems solved by technology

A problem with this form of swim training is that such apparatus can be clunky difficult to manage in the water.
Though the utilization of the life jacket method may produce the desired results of increased strength, the development of incorrect technique as a result of the restricted range of motion is undesirable.
Such a trade off reduces the effectiveness of using such a technique for swim
