The Brick

This is no ordinary flutterboard. On its own, The Brick floats on the water — but as soon as you grab hold, this weighted flutterboard starts to sink, forcing you to kick harder to keep it afloat. It’s a great additional core exercise for your swim. Plus, it acts as a nice six-pound arm weight when you’re carrying it to and from the pool. $55, Fike Swim Products.
