Abstract

[b]Aim of the work.[/b] The aim of the study was to assess the variability of swimming technique of high-classified female athlete in 3-year training period. The variables of swimming technique were also compared with athlete’s sport results.[b]Material and methods. [/b]Female backstroke swimmer, medallist of junior world and European championships took part in the study. In 3-year training period, her maximal velocity on 25 meter backstroke was tested twenty times. All the attempts were recorded by video camera. Basic kinematics variables were calculated from the video record. Pearson’s product moment correlation was used to assess the liaisons between the analyzed variables.[b]Results[/b]. In 3-year training period, swimmer’s maximal velocity developed constantly. Increase of swimming speed was correlated significantly with the stroke rate and the stroke index. Significant relations between stroke length and velocity were not revealed. The highest values of stroke index were found during 100 m backstroke race.[b]Conclusions.[/b] Current control of the kinematics variables is essential in swimming training. Systematic and objective evaluation of swimming technique is very useful in planning individual training loads to develop maximal velocity.
