This journal is divided into five parts, the Swimming Science Abstracts, the Carlile Coaches' Forum, the Swimming Science Bulletin, DRUGS: The Crisis in Swimming, and How Champions Do It. The articles presented are drawn from the personal files of the editor. The contents usually are changed monthly and may or may not be thematic. Reading Swimming Science Journal sections is done in the traditional manner of web browsing. Clicking the mouse on highlighted links will change content. Each section of the journal is structured with a Table of Contents being the main page. By clicking an article in the Table of Contents, the journal will transfer directly to it. Progress through a section involves going forward and backward between the Table of Contents and selected articles. The Swimming Science Abstracts is a compilation of research article abstracts involving swimming. It is divided into five parts. To visit a section simply click on the highlighted name below. As new articles are abstracted they are added to the appropriate section. Biomechanics of Swimming [Last update: 15 September, 1998]. Hydrodynamics of Swimming [Last update: 13 November, 1998]. Physiology of Swimming [Last update: 15 September, 1998]. Psychology of Swimming [Last update: 15 September, 1998]. Training for Swimming [Last update: 1 January, 1999]. The Carlile Coaches' Forum contains original articles written by Brent S. Rushall and designed for distribution to the coaching staff of the Forbes and Ursula Carlile Swimming Organization of Ryde, New South Wales, Australia. The impetus for each article is usually an inquiry from a Carlile coach. The forums are produced periodically depending upon demand. In this journal they are listed by volume and issue. Click on the highlighted name at the beginning of this paragraph to view the contents. [Last update: 12 September, 1998] The Swimming Science Bulletin contains original articles which take a variety of forms and are often written as a response to specific needs and controversial issues raised by swimming coaches. Bulletins are listed by issue. Click on the highlighted name at the beginning of this paragraph to view the contents. [Last update: 7 November, 1998] How Champions Do It is a presentation of underwater sequences of the strokes of champions during their gold medal races. It is updated as analyses are conducted on available films and videos. Viewers can use these as data to evaluate the claims of many swimming "experts." The sequences can also serve as valuable teaching tools for they show how the world's best swimmers execute underwater movements when performing their best. [Last update: 6 January, 1998] DRUGS: The Crisis in Swimming including Swimming's Hall-of-Shame and appropriate press releases. [Last update: 5 January, 1999] Coaching Science Abstracts is a related electronic journal also edited by Brent S. Rushall. Workshops for coaches, athletes, and sport psychologists can also be arranged. The Swimming Science Journal no longer is available online as a free web site. (The site was dedicated to methods of naturally improving performance in a sport that was largely governed by natural factors. With the emergence of untrustworthy officials, drug-taking that is continually excused by the highest authorities, the introduction of performance-enhancing equipment, and the usurpation of the sport's control by swim attire manufacturers, it is time for the author to move on to do "better" things.) The SSJ will always be available on compact disk through Sports Science Associates.
