Abstract
Exercise performed in swimming events can be systematized depending on the supply of oxygen in the aerobic effort (1,500m Freestyle, 10,000m Freestyle), anaerobic effort (50m Freestyle, 100m Freestyle, 200m Freestyle) and mixed effort, where the energy source is provided by both anti-oxidative reactions and oxybiotic reactions, their ratio varying according to exercise intensity and duration (400m Freestyle, 800m Freestyle). One cannot approach exercise capacity without referring to its psychological dimension, with implications on the psychomotor sphere of the athlete. A major challenge faced by performance swimming is early dropout and mental wear, in connection with different forms of motivation. Through the H-902 Waterproof Bone Conduction System, the coach can communicate directly with the athletes during training, encouraging them and influencing a change in the activation level of their positive emotional feelings. Direct communication allows transposing/ strengthening the principles of active and conscious participation and of intuition during training, removes monotony and develops the self-control ability. Examples of technical and tactical components: DAC (distance covered per arm cycle/rate, stroking length and swimming speed), correction of swimming technique, the start and turns, all of them are effectively improved. The device also allows understanding and learning the key-elements of the motor act, and enhances psychomotricity (by the correct representation of body schema and balance), in close connection with the coordination abilities. |
