The aims of the present study were 1) to evaluate the effects of 11 weeks of a typical free-swimming training program on aerobic and stroke parameters determined in tethered swimming (Study 1; n = 13) and 2) to investigate ...

Youth swimming performance may be influenced by anthropometric, physiology and technical factors. The present paper examined the role of these factors in performance of 100m freestyle in swimmers 12-14 years of age (n = ...

The swimming practice requires a great demand of the shoulder complex. The repetitive nature of this sport can lead to bone, muscular and kinematic adaptations. Studies analyzing these adaptations in young athletes are ...

The aim of the present study was to determine if VO2 Kinetics (VO2K) and specifically, the time constant (tau) from rest to maximal and supramaximal velocities is influenced by the swimming intensity. Thirteen well trained ...

This study analyzed the relationship between critical speed (CS) and maximal speed for 30 min (S30) in swimmers of ages 10-15 years. Fifty-one swimmers were divided by chronological age (10-12 years = G10-12, 13-15 years ...
