Welcome to Aqua-Ω ("aqua-ohm') water exercise equipment
As a licensed physical therapist of 33 years and certified aquatic fitness instructor for 29-plus years, I have been looking for and thinking about a piece of equipment, specifically designed for use in the water, to increase strength and endurance of the person using it while fully utilizing the properties and mechanics of water.
Each piece of equipment used in the pool has its place, focusing on distinct areas of benefit. Buoyant equipment will give the user the benefit of addressing eccentric use of muscle groups; while land-based equipment gives added resistance just as it would on land, with the benefit the user can also use it outside the pool. Drag resistance equipment, unique for use in water, provides multidirectional resistance, mimicking functional movements. When used with increased speed, the resistance will increase too.
There is some great drag resistance equipment available; however, often you will need a special set of equipment for arms and a different set for legs. I really wanted something that can be used for both arms and legs, that easily can be modified for size and resistance level and that can be used safely by all populations.
The Aqua-Ω is all that and more.

On the 5th Day of Fitmas, my director gave to me...FIVE Aqua-Ω's! This compact aquatic piece of equipment has our students saying “OHMy goodness” during core and strengthening #waterworkouts! Not only does it allow you to adjust the resistance you want, it makes for an incredible stretch aid! Jenni Lynn Patterson-LaCour carries one in her backpack during the week and in her suitcase for travel. @aquaohm is the perfect gift for beginners to advanced water enthusiasts! #AquaOhm#aquaticexercise

The Aqua-Ω already is used in 43 states and 14 countries
