Energetics of Competitive Swimming
Sports Medicine, 1994An analysis of the mechanics and energetics of swimming reveals that different factors play key roles in success in competitive swimming events. Knowledge of these performance factors will help the development of optimal training programmes, especially when their relative importance can be identified.

INJURIES IN COMPETITIVE SWIMMING
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1999Competitive swimming is commonly thought to be an injury-free sport. Traumatic and overuse injuries do occur, especially if one includes accidents occurring to both athletes and spectators, and accidents resulting from some of the newer diving and starting techniques.

Effects of Training on Performance in Competitive Swimming
Canadian Journal of Applied Physiology, 1995The relationships between the mean intensity of a training season, training volume and frequency, and the variations in performance were studied in a group of 18 elite swimmers. Additionally, differences between the swimmers who improved their personal record of the previous year during the follow-up training season (G1R, n = 8) and those who did not (

Orthopedic Aspects of Competitive Swimming
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1987Orthopedic problems related to competitive swimming are rarely disabling, but can be problematic in preventing training and competition. Most problems are related to the shoulder and knee. Treatment is primarily nonsurgical and directed at relieving symptoms and allowing the athlete to continue with swimming practice. Treatment aids such as ice packing,

THE PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOMECHANICS OF COMPETITIVE SWIMMING
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1999Fast swimming, either in the pool, in open water swimming, or in water polo and synchronized swimming, requires maximizing the efficiencies with which the human body can move through a liquid medium. A multitude of factors can affect the ability to swim fast as well as the final outcome.

Biomechanics of Competitive Front Crawl Swimming
Sports Medicine, 1992Essential performance-determining factors in front crawl swimming can be analysed within a biomechanical framework, in reference to the physiological basis of performance. These factors include: active drag forces, effective propulsive forces, propelling efficiency and power output.

KNEE PAIN IN COMPETITIVE SWIMMING
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1999The high volume of training in competitive swimming results in cumulative overload injuries. Knee pain ranks second to shoulder pain as a common complaint in competitive swimmers. Most knee pain occurs on the medial side of the knee and, most commonly, in breaststroke swimmers; however, knee pain may accompany all strokes.

Myocardial Adaptations to Competitive Swim Training
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2019ABSTRACT Purpose Swim training is performed in the prone or supine position and obligates water immersion, factors that may augment cardiac volume loading more than other endurance sports. At present, prospective data defining the cardiac responses to swim training are lacking.
