The testing procedure:
After a standardised warm-up, the swimmer starts each time trial in the water with a push start from the wall (no diving).
Record your time for the 1000m TT (Time Trial)
Record your 200m split times as well
The data for the TT is to be submitted into the form below for analysis.
The equipment required: a 25m or 50m swimming pool preferably and a stopwatch.
*Try to perform the tests and retests in the same pool to standardise as many variables as possible.
