The cause of the breaststroke swimmer's knee with medial pain of the knee joint has not been clearly identified. Breaststroke swimmers with knee pain were, therefore, examined arthros copically. None showed any other disorders of their knees than medial synovitis in seven of nine swimmers.

Competitive swimmers have a high incidence of breast stroke-related knee injuries. Although previous investi gators have implicated the terminal phase of the kick in the injury mechanism, athletes often complain of pain during the initial phase of rearward thrust.

Biomechanical Analysis of the Breaststroke Start
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2007The aim of this study was to analyse the kinematics and coordination of the breaststroke start as regards to skill level using a video device. Ten national swimmers were compared with an international swimmer. All swimmers simulated the 100-m pace for 25 m after a grab start. The kinematical analysis assessed the durations of leave block, flight, entry

Different Muscle-Recruitment Strategies Among Elite Breaststrokers
International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 2015Purpose:To investigate electromyographical (EMG) profiles characterizing the lower-limb flexion-extension in an aquatic environment in high-level breaststrokers.Methods:The 2-dimensional breaststroke kick of 1 international- and 2 national-level female swimmers was analyzed during 2 maximal 25-m swims.

Wave Characteristics of Olympic Breaststroke Swimmers
Journal of Applied Biomechanics, 1998The purpose of this study was to investigate the wave characteristics of breaststroke swimming. Particular emphasis was accorded the question of whether modern breast-stroke is "flylike" (referring to the butterfly stroke) and whether "waves" travel along the body during the breaststroke cycle.

Thigh Strains in Competitive Breaststroke Swimmers
Journal of Sport Rehabilitation, 1992Although shoulder and knee injuries are the most common injuries in swimmers, thigh/groin strains have recently been identified as a critical area in elite competitive breaststroke swimmers. A survey of high-level collegiate breaststroke swimmers revealed a 33% incidence of this hip flexor adductor injury.

This collection of short fiction explores themes of loneliness, loss of love, and self-worth in a strange, often humorous fashion. The characters face challenges that present themselves in ways that exist only within imagined worlds: a woman’s heart leaves her body after a bad breakup, a captive entertainer is let out of her glass cage, a group of ...

Arm–leg coordination in recreational and competitive breaststroke swimmers
Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, 2009The aims of this study were to assess the durations of the different arm and leg stroke phases (propulsion, glide, and recovery) and the temporal arm-leg gaps between 12 competitive and 12 recreational breaststroke swimmers. The mean ages and best times for a 50-m breaststroke were, respectively, (recreational: 16.9+/-1.6 y; 49.55+/-3.38 s; competitive:

Propulsive efficiency of breaststroke and freestyle swimming
European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1974Average drag at a given rate of movement by three top swimmers was about twice as great in breast stroke and freestyle swimming as in passive towing with the body extended and horizontal in the water. The greatest degree of propulsive efficiency (7.7%) was calculated for the arm strokes alone in the freestyle.
