Resumo(s)

Introdution Swimming speed is both dependent on strength and technique. Indeed, the balance between these two major factors may explain the success or failure in competitive events. However, competitive events vary enormously in terms of distance, and therefore time and intensity. Thus, an optimal level of strength is essential for successful performance in swimming (1), varying according to the distance to be swam (2). But how can swimming coaches track the balance between these two factors? And how can be identified if the swimmer must focus in one of them, in detriment of the other?
