Silvie V.
We bought this belt to use in our pool at home and it works great. It allows us to exercise without having to paddle back and forth after just two strokes. My husband and I both use it, and it’s easy to adjust so that it fits us both comfortably.

The SWIMLOOP swim belt is an outstanding innovation in resistance training and stationary swimming. As an alternative to a counter-current system, it offers an effective way to train intensively even in small pools. […] It meets all expectations and offers excellent value for money.

Great piece of kit. Really well made. It looks silly of course, but works brilliantly. Born in 1950, 5 m pool, and I now swim my roughly 1,000 metres every day. It helps my arthritis … Can only recommend it.

Very happy with the swim belt. It works flawlessly. No problem putting it on or swimming. Breaststroke, front crawl and backstroke all fine. Can recommend it.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about pool, belt and app.
What is the minimum pool length?
To avoid touching the pool wall with your legs while swimming relaxed, or with your arms during intense swimming, the pool should be at least 3 meters long.
What is the minimum pool depth?
For a swimmer with a good position in the water, the pool should be about 0.75 m deep so that the body does not touch the bottom.
I only swim for fitness. Is the product still worth it?
Yes. The SwimLoop system is a worthwhile investment for anyone who wants to measure their swimming performance and track their progress, regardless of skill level. In smaller pools especially, it lets you optimize your training, tailor it to your needs and reach your goals step by step.
My pool is free-standing with nothing to attach to. Is there a solution?
Yes. The SwimLoop belt includes two individually adjustable elastic bands that can be hooked into the swim belt individually or together. The elastic band can also bridge the distance to the next attachment point. This makes the system suitable for free-standing pools without direct attachment options.
Does the app cost extra?
The SwimLoop app is completely free. There are no additional costs. All technical improvements ship as software updates, so your SwimLoop box always stays up to date.
Does the app work on Android and iOS?
Yes, both iOS and Android are supported by the SwimLoop app.
Does my smartphone/tablet need to be online?
An internet connection is needed for sign-up and profile creation. Apart from that, the app also works offline.
I have a saltwater pool. Can I use the device and belt in it?
Yes. We only use V4A stainless steel parts to prevent rust. Important: rinse the accessories thoroughly with fresh water after each use in saltwater and dry them well to ensure longevity.
Is swimming without a water current worse training?
No. It’s a different, highly effective training experience. The constant pull of the belt keeps you moving continuously, which makes the training more intense. Many users report noticeable, measurable improvements in lap swimming after using SwimLoop for a while.
Does my mobile device have to stay right at the pool?
No. The SwimLoop system has a range of up to 20 meters. You can set up and start your session from a distance. Measurement starts automatically as soon as you start swimming. Your device stays dry.
What’s the advantage over counter-current systems?
The SwimLoop belt makes your training more intense and more effective: the constant pull keeps you moving. At the same time the system precisely measures your swimming performance, something no counter-current system can do. SwimLoop is also much more affordable, space-saving, energy-efficient and low-maintenance.
Isn’t a smartwatch enough for distance and strokes?
Smartwatches measure distance either via pool length and turns or via GPS. Neither method works for stationary swimming, because you stay in place. That’s exactly what the SwimLoop system was built for.
