Maximal oxygen uptake rate during swimming and bicycling
The biomechanics of humans while swimming is unique in one aspect. Most locomotory performances, e.g., walking, running or bicycling, are established by means ofleg movements; however, the arms are the most important factor in front crawl swimming. This fact was reported by Magel (1970) and is also demonstrated in this study. The dominance of arm performance in front crawl swimming has profound consequences for the physiology of swimming and the evaluation of physiological parameters of swimmers (Secher et al., 1974). The present investigation was carried out in order to determine the influence of arm fitness on maximal oxygen uptake during swimming.
