Our evaluation of hydrofitness devices for strengthening arm muscles has revealed several important determinants of their performance. Most importantly, the device's frontal projection should be in the shape of a paddle whose surface area can be varied to meet the individual exerciser's needs. Its weight should be light to minimize the inertial forces encountered in charging the velocity of paddle movement. Its handle should have a relatively large circumference without digital profiling. These optimal performance parameters have been recently incorporated into a new hydrofitness device that will be commercially available for aquatic exercise programs for strengthening upper extremity muscles.
我们对用于增强手臂肌肉的水上健身器材的评估揭示了其性能的几个重要决定因素。最重要的是，该器材的正面投影应呈桨状，其表面积可以变化以满足个体锻炼者的需求。其重量应较轻，以尽量减少在改变桨叶运动速度时遇到的惯性力。其手柄的周长应相对较大，且没有手指轮廓设计。这些最佳性能参数最近已被纳入一种新的水上健身器材中，该器材将在商业上用于增强上肢肌肉的水上运动项目。
