Pull Buoy Training
Pull buoy training floats the legs so the upper body does pull-focused freestyle or backstroke—often with paddles for overload. It raises arm and lat demand; use moderate volume to protect shoulders.

Pair with kick sets another day for balance.
Common questions
-
How much pull buoy training per week?
Many masters swimmers keep pull sets under roughly thirty percent of total yardage; more if shoulders are healthy and kick work stays in the plan.
-
Pull buoy between ankles or thighs?
Between thighs is standard for level hips; ankle placement changes feel and is less common—choose what keeps hips high without knee strain.
