The shoulder in competitive swimming

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1980
Shoulder pain is the most common orthopaedic problem in competitive swimming. In a group of 137 of this country's best swimmers, 58 had had symptoms of "swimmer's shoulder." Population characteristics of this group indicated that symp toms increased with the caliber of the athlete, were slightly more common in men, and were related to sprint rather ...

Biomechanics of Competitive Front Crawl Swimming

Sports Medicine, 1992
Essential 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.

Using Wearable Sensors to Capture Posture of the Human Lumbar Spine in Competitive Swimming

IEEE Transactions on Human-Machine Systems, 2019
Motion capture based on wearable inertial sensors is a promising technique for swimmers' training. To apply motion capture techniques properly, a swimming motion evaluation method based on inertial motion capture technology is proposed.

Energetics of Competitive Swimming

Sports Medicine, 1994
An 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.

Effect of Moderate- or High-Intensity Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training on Maximal Inspiratory Mouth Pressure and Swimming Performance in Highly Trained Competitive Swimmers.

International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 2021
PURPOSE Inspiratory muscle strength training (IMST) can improve exercise performance. Increased maximal inspiratory mouth pressure (MIP) could be beneficial for swimmers to enhance their performance.

Myocardial Adaptations to Competitive Swim Training

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2019
ABSTRACT 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.

KNEE PAIN IN COMPETITIVE SWIMMING

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1999
The 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.
