Velocity Variability and Performance in Backstroke in Elite and Good-Level Swimmers
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022 Backstroke swimming, a cyclic and continuous movement, displays a repeating structure due to the repeated action of the limb, presenting similar (but not identical) cycles. Some variability is generated by instabilities, but this may play a functional role in the human performance, allowing individual adaptations to constraints.

Sex-based differences in swimming performance in 10-years-old-and-under athletes in short course national competition. [PDF]
Eur J Sport SciAbstract The need for sex‐segregated youth swimming is debated. A previous report indicates that male swimmers aged 10‐and‐under are 1%–2% faster than females in long course freestyle, butterfly, backstroke, and individual medley (IM), but not breaststroke events.
