This study examined the race pattern of world-class swimmers in the 400-meter freestyle event. We observed that the majority of athletes followed a parabolic pacing pattern and that aerobic capacity significantly impacts performance in the 400 meters. READ!

This study compared the butterfly coordination in young swimmers at different stages of maturation. The results suggest that young swimmers should pay attention to the coordination of the butterfly stroke, specifically focusing on the synchronization between the start of the pulling phase of the arm stroke and the beginning of the downward phase of the second kick.

This study examined the reliability of biomechanical parameters in the force-time curve of the freestyle stroke in a 10-second tethered swimming protocol. The analyzed parameters are reproducible and can be used to monitor adaptations induced by training. READ!

In this study, we investigated whether increasing dry-land strength influences swimmers' performance in short distances. After the training, the experimental group showed a greater increase in strength compared to the control group, but performance did not improve. This study suggests that strength development in swimming should occur in a more specific manner. READ!
