Original Abstract

The aim of the article is to analyze the development of swimmer´s speed after the breaststroke turn. We watched and compared the development of speed in the phases following the Turn, Push-off, Glide and Pull-Out of the chosen swimmers. We have chosen research questions: At what speed does the swimmer start executing the first stroke from the glide position considering the race speed? What is the average speed after the turn in comparison with the speed in the rest of the track? For how long is the swimmer´s speed lower during the pull-out than their race speed? The research sample consist of 5 female swimmers at national level. Data was collected with the use of an inertial measurement unit (IMU) of our own construction (SwIMU). Results: In the results we focused on the qualitative analysis of individual Pull-out phases. Conclusion: In this track swimming section, the swimmers do not have a perfectly mastered synchronization of movements. We can spot the space for improvement of the race results.
