Is it good for helping improve leg floating?

I don't see how these pants can help you improve floating. That should be more about technique that you can consult with a swimming coach ;-) !!

No! this product is too flimsy. The leg are very weak. Lasted 4 day from normal use.

Absolutely. We got it to help with our balance, and it's quite good for that. Comes with some exercise suggestions.

Hello these are not made for aquatic exercises. I am sure tho it can be done but the fabric might stretch after this kind is repeated use. It's all about the fabric other than that it is a good product as my wife, daughter and I use it. God bless

I had an ankle fusion done, and at a slow rate it has helped with my balance. My husband uses it at an increased rate of 16, and gets quite a deal of benefit for his sciatica as well as lower back problems. We are both 66 years old, so we only use it 5 minutes at a time, but we use it daily. I hope this helps you. Kathy and Ed

I would suspect you would be fine. I am 6', and can hang my feet and roughly a third my shins in the water, while floating. The seat is not that high, especially if you slightly under-inflate the bladders (or don't top them off when cooler water causes some loss of pressure).

Yes for sure. You can do just a slight angle which I recommend to start with. I started at a pretty good angle and it made my legs really sore. I think I stretched the muslces out too far too fast. Believe it or not, just a slight angle for just 30-40 seconds does have an effect. You may not feel it right away but trust me, it's working!!!! I found that out the hard way! Hope this helps.

Pamela, In the same manner that a life preserver would keep you afloat, this belt would also keep you afloat. It is intended to be used when doing aqua aerobic type exercises. If your goal is to do aqua aerobic exercises (i.e. float on your stomach or your back while kicking your legs or doing arm exercises), this would be a good piece of equipment for you.Have a good weekend.Sincerely,Roy LazarusTrivillage.com

It's a great workout in the water. not too hard. I can even do leg lifts at the end of each walking lap. Love them.

Yes, however it requires more leg strength! A good workout but would be a little more difficult for really young ones.

Probably not...unless you are swinging your arms. Sounds silly, but it is more tied in to arm movement than leg activity.

Ronald, tell you the truth I haven't used it for my legs yet. I've had to really bad knee injurys, however I will be using it soon for my rehab. The over all use of this system is Great. I wish it came with the video's. Hope this helps.

i use it for insanity and its great! It helps your feet get a good grip. I recommend buying a yoga mat, its not as soft and they will complement each other

I went to physical therapy in the pool and learn different types of movements under water to strengthen my neck. The paddles open and close for more or less resistance. Doing water exercise helps keep the weight off the bad joints and slowly strengthen them.

It's very sturdy, but free standing so its built for balanced exercise. Your center of gravity needs to be controlled which is the purpose. I do leg work mostly but even do pull ups directly under the bar. Its very versatile, and adjustable for even more uses. Can't go wrong if u know the basics.

Yes, but for the best leg workout you might need to get the additional jump pad

I do squats with it. But any other leg workout it will bind up and you can not get a full range of motion.
