| dc.description.abstract | This study aimed to: (i) verify the within-subject effect of the dominant and non-dominant upper limb propulsion during consecutive arm-pulls through discrete (average) and continuous analysis (SPM), and; (ii) compare young swimmers’ propulsion between both upper limbs through discrete (average) and continuous analysis (Statistical Parametric Mapping – SPM). The sample consisted of 17 young male swimmers (age = 16.02 ± 0.61-years) who regularly participate in national and international level competitions. A set of kinematic and propulsion variables were measured during a 25-m maximal trial in front-crawl. Statistical analysis of propulsion was performed using discrete variables and through SPM. Swimming velocity showed a significant decrease over time. A significant interaction between the “time” (consecutive arm-pulls) and “side” (dominant vs. non-dominant) effects was observed in both statistical analyzes. Only the dominant upper limb demonstrated a significant “time” effect with a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the first and third arm-pulls. SPM indicated that the “time” effect was observed between the ~ 34% and ~ 42% of the arm-pull. The differences between the first and third arm-pull were verified between the ~ 32% and ~ 43% of the arm-pull. A non-significant “side” effect was verified in both analyzes. Therefore, SPM analysis provided more sensitive and accurate outputs than discrete analysis. This will allow coaches to design specific training drills focused on specific moments of the arm-pull | pt_PT |
