Effects of Arms-Only Swimming Training on Performance, Movement Economy, and Aerobic Power
International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 2008 Context:Forward propulsion in freestyle swimming is predominantly achieved through arm action. Few studies have assessed the effects of arm training on arm power and swimming performance, yet there have not been any investigations on the effects of arms-only swimming training on swimming performance and physiological responses to arm exercise.Purpose ...

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2022 Triathlon wetsuits commonly use for the potential benefits of swimming performance and thermoregulation. Triathletes may select different wetsuit styles depending on many factors (e.g., temperature regulation swimming technique, body type, and training ...

Swimming Strategies for Energy Economy
, 2010 The laws of physics are rigid and fixed. Animals, therefore, are restricted in their use of available energy in accordance to the constraints of mechanics and thermodynamics. Evolutionary success dictates that a large proportion of the available energy reserves be allocated to reproductive effort despite the demand by other energy consuming functions ...

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1991 Abstract 1. 1. The burst-and-coast behavior and tail beat frequency were analysed to determine if an energetic saving was realized for fish when swimming in formation. 2. 2. Individual Notemigonus crysoleucas were compared as they swam singly or in a school of five at 0.15 m/sec in a flow tank. 3. 3. No significant difference was found in

How fins affect the economy and efficiency of human swimming [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2002 SUMMARYThe aim of the present study was to quantify the improvements in the economy and efficiency of surface swimming brought about by the use of fins over a range of speeds (v) that could be sustained aerobically. At comparable speeds, the energy cost (C) when swimming with fins was about 40 %lower than when swimming without them; when compared at ...

ENERGY ECONOMY IN SPORTS HALLS AND SWIMMING POOLS IN ROCK
, 1981 In Norway, during the last decade, several dual purpose rock installations have been constructed. In time of peace they are serving as sports halls and swimming pools and in war events as public shelters. Running experiences have shown remarkable low energy consumption and maintance costs compared to conventional installations.
