Just one hundredth of a second separates elite swimmers from the
podium, but what are the physical forces at work behind these tiny
margins, and how can an understanding of them be used to improve
your own technique in the pool? Swimming Science investigates, with
each chapter focussing on a different area. From swimming
technology, physiology, and psychology to hydrodynamics, the key
principles of swimming science are addressed, with the content
organised around a series of questions. What creates the drag in
the water? How have swim suits evolved? Which muscles generate
propulsion? How much force do elite swimmers use? Each question is
investigated using up-to-date science and explanatory
info-graphics.
