Effect of fatigue on stroking characteristics in an arms-only 100-m front-crawl race

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to measure the time-dependent mechanical power output that occurs during a 100-m front-crawl race and relate the output to changes in clean swimming pool, stroke length, and stroke rate as seen during the race. Decreases in swimming speed throughout a 100-m front-crawl race are the result of decreases in the power-producing capacity of the swimmer (fatigue).

Stroking parameters in top level swimmers with a disability

Article Abstract:

Research indicates that the stroke length and stroke rate of disabled swimmers is related to velocity, and that stroke rate is not different between gender or for able-bodied swimmers. Results are based on a study of 62 male and 57 female swimmers with a disability compared to 16 male and 16 female swimmers without a disability.

Alteration of trabecular bone under chronic beta2 agonists treatment

Article Abstract:

The effects of chronic clenbuterol and salbutamol treatment on bones of growing rats are evaluated. The results suggest a negative effect of clenbuterol and salbutamol on the mechanical properties and microarchitecture of trabecular bone.
