Journal Article

The intracycle velocity (V) of a fixed point on a swimmer’s body, usually the hip, is frequently calculated as a direct indication of the intracycle V of the centre of mass (CM). The purpose of this study was to examine whether the intracycle V of th... Read More about Validity of the use of a fixed point for intracycle velocity calculations in swimming.

Rolling rhythms in front crawl swimming with six-beat kick (2009)
Journal Article
Psycharakis, S. G., Sanders, R. H., Sanders, R., & Psycharakis, S. (2009). Rolling rhythms in front crawl swimming with six-beat kick. Journal of Biomechanics, 42(3), 273-279. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2008.10.037

The purpose of this study was to establish the rhythm characteristics of skilled front crawl swimmers using a six-beat kick. These included the amplitudes of the first three Fourier harmonics (H1, H2, H3) and their percent contributions to power cont...
