Abstract
A magnetic swimmer restraint device including a magnetic cone assembly, a strap assembly, a bracelet remote assembly, and a pool assembly is disclosed. These assemblies in conjunction with one another provide a user with a portable restraining system for increased resistance swimming. A wearable strap assembly interacts with magnetic cone assembly that can be located on the lateral sides of a pool or in the pool itself. As a user swims past the magnetic cone assembly the wearable strap assembly becomes magnetically attracted to the magnetic cone assembly. The magnetic attraction of the strap assembly worn by the user to the magnetic cone assembly pulls the user towards the magnetic cone assembly. Thereby increasing swimming resistance. The magnet of the magnetic cone assembly may be an electromagnetic system to be turned on and off via a bracelet remote assembly.
