Original Abstract

The objective of research conducted by brno University of Technology (bUT), Centre for sport activities (CESA) from 2009 until now is to successfully implement a kinematic and dynamic analysis of top-level swimming; to increase the efficiency of swimming technique in the Czech Republic to reach the world leading level. Twice a year we measure the speed of swimming of Czech national team using two tachographs (inventions of bUT). Measurements are evaluated by computer software. We synchronously record the movement of measured swimmers by three underwater camcorders. The analysis of speed and acceleration is printed out. We also print out the erroneous body positions and erroneous strokes by arms and legs while swimming. We provide the results of complete measurement on DVD. The results of measurements (DVD) are forwarded to the coaches of national teams and to the measured individuals. Twice a year we issue the tables of kinetic and dynamic analysis of swimming, which refer to the swimmers with the highest efficiency of swimming technique in the Czech Republic. Every six months the coaches and swimmers are provided with “Tables on statistical analysis of swimming of Czech national team”. The research team of CESA bUT is the only one (according to the available literature), which calculates, on the basis of measurements of swimming speed, the efficiency of swimming technique and the variation coefficient – a sensitive indicator of swimming technique.
