Resumo(s)
The aim of this study was to examine the performance characteristics
of male and female finalists in the 100-m distance at the 2016
European Championships in swimming (long-course-metre). The
performances of all 64 (32-males and 32-females) were analysed (8
swimmers per event; Freestyle, Backstroke, Breaststroke and Butterfly).
A set of start and turn parameters were analysed. In the start main
outcome, male swimmers were faster in Butterfly (5.71 ± 0.14s) and
females in Freestyle (6.68 ± 0.28s). In the turn main outcome, male and
female swimmers were faster in Freestyle (males: 9.55 ± 0.13s; females:
10.78 ± 0.28s). A significant and strong stroke effect was noted in
the start and turn main outcome, in both sexes. In the start plus the
turn combined, males and females were faster in Freestyle (males:
15.40 ± 0.20s; females: 17.45 ± 0.54s). The start and the turn combined
accounted almost one-third of the total race time in all events, and
non-significant differences (p > 0.05) were noted across the four swim
strokes. Once this research made evident the high relevance of start
and turns, it is suggested that coaches and swimmers should dedicate
an expressive portion of the training perfecting these actions
