The Vasa Sport Bench will be your “secret weapon” swim training tool outside the water.
Combine the Sport Bench with the Vasa SpaceSaver SwimErg of Vasa Swim Cord Kit to increase power, speed and stamina in exactly the right muscles needed to make performance gains and greater speed in the water.
Improve swim technique—fix common stroke flaws and transfer better technique to the water. Reinforce the “high elbow catch” (a.k.a. EVF – early vertical forearm) – a crucial technique characteristic needed for all strokes, and especially for freestyle.
Vasa swim-specific training will make you stronger and durable with truly functional strength.
Functional Conditioning, Cross Training & Physical Therapy
The Vasa Sport Bench provides tremendous added versatility and value since it can also be used as a weight bench for functional sports conditioning, cross training and physical therapy rehabilitation. We recommend using it with the Vasa SpaceSaver SwimErg (shown above) for maximum results. It’s also effective to use it with tubing or bands*, dumbbells, medicine balls, and body weight to perform a wide variety of functional exercises for sports, fitness and rehabilitation.
Designed for Stability & Portability
If you want a versatile and portable bench to pair with a Vasa SpaceSaver SwimErg or the Vasa Swim Cord Kit, the new Vasa Sport Bench will be the perfect solution.
The bench is slightly inclined, so the athlete will be in an ideal position for all swimming strokes. The folding legs have a proprietary design that provides maximum stability during use. The legs fold up easily, making it lightweight and sleek for transport or storage.
Dr. Glenn Gero –
I received my Vasa Sport Bench today and I love it. I was impressed that it came fully assembled. It is a perfect addition to my Space Saver Vasa Erg. I’ve already envisioned its use with a number of other applications. The fact that it folds is a great feature for me as I have over 60 pieces of exercise equipment in a relatively small space, hence organization is of paramount importance. This bench when folded leaves a very small footprint. It is quite sturdy and feels solid as I perform my swim movements with the Erg. In my personal collection of exercise equipment I have two Vasa Trainers and the Space Saver Ergometer. I’ve been a huge fan of Vasa for many years and my new bench will add an important dimension to that collection. Thanks, Vasa for making this bench available.
Tim Crowley, Head Strength & Conditioning Coach, Montverde Academy, Florida –
The Vasa Sport Bench is a well-designed and versatile tool that will become the mainstay of any swim specific and strength program. The compact design allows the bench to easily be folded and stored away for saving space. It’s ideal to use with SpaceSaver SwimErg for swim-specific training. It is also an effective bench for strength training and rehab.
We have several standard Vasa SwimErgs and a SpaceSaver SwimErg in our strength & conditioning facility at Montverde Academy. We use the Sport Bench with a SpaceSaver SwimErg for the swim teams, and with our baseball and softball athletes for injury rehab and recovery exercises.
For use in a home or garage gym, the Sport Bench saves valuable space. When paired with the space saver ergometer, this gives you the ultimate swim specific training device. It also doubles as bench for strength training exercises. IMO, it is a must-have for any home training set up.
