Swimsuit Arena one-piece with a racerback or training model, made from chlorine-resistant material: swimsuits from a brand that comes from competitive swimming.
The swimsuit Arena comes from competitive swimming, which means it has a precise technical requirement: chlorine resistance. Its MaxLife Eco fabric is described as the evolution of the brand's most chlorine-resistant material, aimed at regular and intensive swimmers.
This is the point that most buyers discover too late. An ordinary beach swimsuit loses its elastane after a few weeks of training in the pool: the fabric stretches, the swimsuit becomes transparent and no longer fits properly. An anti-chlorine swimsuit Arena, made from specific polyester threads, lasts a full season. With a pool swimsuit Arena, training two or three times a week, the cost difference is quickly covered.
Beyond chlorine resistance, the fabric boasts quick drying properties, UV protection 50+, and hydrodynamic properties, meaning less drag in the water. The racerback, X-back or crossed straps design allows for shoulder movement during repetitive arm strokes. The range also includes women's swimsuits Arena 2 pieces, which are less common for training but suitable for aqua aerobics: the Arena two-piece swimsuit comes in bra and swimming bottom versions.
A training swimsuit should fit snugly when dry, tighter than a beach swimsuit: the material stretches in water, so a model that feels comfortable in the fitting room will be loose after ten lengths.
