ABSTRACT:
A swimwear garment includes an upper body portion and a trunk portion made of a base fabric. At least one resistance band is incorporated in the garment. The resistance band has a direction of strength and memory characteristics to return the band to its unstretched condition. The resistance band has greater resistance characteristics than the base fabric so that during swimming strokes the muscles used for performing the swim strokes are strengthened by the additional exercise resulting from the stretching of the resistance bands.
