Abstract des Autors
Seventeen male collegiate swimmers were studied before, during, and after 14 days of reduced training (tapering). Maximal arm power was measured using a biokinetic swim bench and during a tethered (power) swim test, and each swimmer also swam 200 yards (182.9 meters) at an evenly paced velocity corresponding to 90 of his best performance of the season. Tapering had no influence on postexercise acid-base balance, but there was a significant increase (P<0.5) in power output on both the biokinetic swim bench and the power swim test. Performance times improved an average of 3.1. The improvements are in part due to significant gains in muscular power. Verf.-Referat
