The two most common mistakes swimmers make are "dropped elbows" and an "incomplete finish" during the stroke. Since the Vasa Trainer swim bench allows you to pull your body past the hands, you can easily see what you are doing, or not doing, and correct the mistake. Plus, when you train using proper stroke mechanics, it is stored in your neuromuscular memory banks. In the water, you’ll be able to retrieve the data to use perfect technique for every stroke, resulting in better, faster swimming – and all with less effort.

In fact, many coaches use the Vasa Trainer swim bench to show proper stroke mechanics on land and then instruct their swimmers to "go swim like that" in the pool. Since you can see your hand and arm position throughout each stroke, it is easy to instantly make corrections and fine tune technique. These benefits cannot be achieved with weights or other devices. That's why world champion swimmers and coaches rely on the Vasa Trainer swim bench to improve technique and conditioning.
