PowerForce, speed, and strength. Water not only exercises your cardiovascular muscles, but also provides adequate resistance for strength building that powers you through even the most strenuous training. These movements are designed to maximize all three aspects of your workout and improve your overall power in and out of the pool. Strength, plyometrics, and pillar preparation are the keys to developing power. |
EnduranceThe pool is the perfect place to improve your endurance level. The water’s natural resistance against your movements results in a higher intensity workout than you would get on land. Endurance exercises are great for flushing the tissues and conditioning the body. These exercises will train you to have longer, more effective workouts. Movement preparation and skills, and energy system development are the keys to increasing endurance. |
RecoveryRecovery and recuperation are key components to a well-rounded workout. We need to be recovered today for a great tomorrow. Water rehabilitation allows you to rehabilitate yourself without the pain often associated with on-land exercise. Use the unique properties of water to help your body bounce back and relax (like you can’t anywhere else). Focus on breathing through the nose. Regeneration is the key to recovery. |

About Speedo
In 1914, Speedo was founded in Australia by Alexander MacRae, a 22-year-old Scottish immigrant who arrived in the country in 1910. The company began when MacRae Hosiery manufacturers, established by Alexander in 1914, extended the manufacture of underwear to swimwear and became MacRae Knitting Mills. A naming competition was held by the staff in 1928 and won by a Captain Parsonson, who coined the slogan, “Speed on in your Speedos.” In 1929, the first swimsuits were in production and it didnt take long for Speedo to successfully establish itself. World War II caused the brand turn over 90% of its manufacturing to war production, providing the armed services with vital equipment such as mosquito nets. After the war, Speedo opened a new factory and was able to re-establish itself, due to increased demand for swimsuits. In 1951, Speedo Knitting Mills (Holdings) Ltd, was incorporated and became a publicly traded company on the Sydney Stock exchange.
Speedo hit the international stage in earnest, at the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games, and a few years later the brand grew on a more global scale. Export sales to the USA began and an international division was set up to monitor trade in New Zealand, Japan and South Africa. The expansion of the brand continued, and in 1976, Speedo was appointed as the official swimwear for the 1976 Montreal Olympics, where 52 out of 54 countries wore their swimsuits.
Speedo continues to make its mark in the pool and on the beach today. Many world class athletes who wear Speedo include U.S. phenomenon Michael Phelps, legendary Australian swimmer Grant Hackett, world record holder Kosuke Kitajima from Japan, and Hollands Inge de Bruijn.
