Monitoring the elite swimmer’s performance and energetical profile throughout a training season. In UKSEM 2011. Londreshttp://hdl.handle.net/10198/6361The evaluation of seasonal performance and energetical adaptations are probably the most critical element of testing for the coach and athlete. The ability to monitor changes within a season provides fundamental information on the response of swimmers to their training periodization. Since performance depends from energetical profile, there are several factos that can provide an important feedback on training progress and in competition conditions. Adaptations to swim training are determined by the form of the training stimulus. The training volume, intensity and frequency are in constant change as the as the competitive season goes by.engconference poster
