In swimming, understanding the forces acting on a swimmer is crucial for optimizing performance. This involves managing drag, leveraging resistance, and maxi...
22 Μαρ 2018 · This study summarizes the effect of slightly altering hand and arm positions on two of the most important forces: lift and drag in swimming. While the results of this study are interesting, it is also important to not look at these results independently.
14 Ιουν 2017 · In any given medium, including water, the frontal drag forces of an object are determined by its shape, its surface texture (friction) and its speed squared. Here are ten good ways to help reduce...
10 Μαΐ 2017 · There are three different types of drag forces that slow swimmers down; pressure (form) drag, surface (wave) drag and friction. In a study done in 2008, Mollendorf, Termin et al showed that all...
The active drag coefficient (Cd) is the overall best measure of a swimmer’s technique. The more effective the technique, the lower the Cd. There is a considerable range of Cd values – from over 2.0 for a very ineffective technique to under .7 for very effective technique.
16 Ιαν 2020 · Frontal drag is the enemy of the swimmer and reducing it needs to be a primary objective. Since tech suits are not inexpensive, are they worth the investment?
19 Μαρ 2018 · The drag is the resistance force to the displacement that acts upon the swimmer. Drag force depends on anthropometrics, speed, water density and drag coefficient (Marinho et al., 2009). Total power output (Po) is the sum of the power to overcome the drag (Pd) and the power to transfer kinetic energy to water (Pk) (Toussaint, 1990).
