Aston, PA (ContentDesk) October 10, 2005 - With the nation increasingly focused on health and fitness, Endless Pools, Inc., the leader in counter-current swimming machines, is bringing its innovative technology to the backyard pool. The Fastlane, an over the wall swim current generator, will turn a once underutilized backyard pool into a place for serious exercise.
From October 11 - 15, the Fastlane will be available for test swims at the Ironman World Championships in Kailua-Kona.???Over the years of manufacturing and selling Endless Pools, I have talked with many people frustrated that their backyard pools are too small for lap swimming, said James Murdock, founder and president of Endless Pools. These pools are normally only used as a place to cool off and entertain, however with the Fastlane, a press of a button will convert them into beneficial fitness tools."The Fastlane, similar to a treadmill for swimmers, is a swimming machine that easily installs into virtually any swimming pool.
Its smooth, non-turbulent current is fully adjustable making it ideal for swimming, aquatic exercise and rehabilitation.
The currents highest speed challenges the best competitive swimmer, yet it can easily be adjusted to suit the beginner and everyone in between.The Fastlane adds a whole new dimension to conventional training methods, stated Karlyn Pipes Neilsen, a Kona resident and 49 time United States Master Swimming world record holder.
By eliminating flip turns, the swimmer can fully concentrate on stroke technique.
In addition, the underwater mirrors allow them to see problems with their stroke and to see when it starts to fall apart due to fatigue.Endless Pools, Inc., headquartered in Aston, PA, a suburb of Philadelphia, was founded in 1988 by James Murdock to manufacture and sell counter-current swimming machines for residential and commercial use.
Over the last fifteen years, more than 9,000 Endless Pools have been sold in the United States and over 50 countries. To try the Fastlane, visit us at the Ironaman Village Expo, 75-5760 Alii Drive Kailua-Kona, HI, October 11 -15 or call (800) 233-0741 ext.

Theyd rather have dinner at a waterfront fishermans dive than sit and be uncomfortable at a four-star restaurant.TheRealOregon.com...
