Shunfang Liu, Jingling Dai, Pengpeng Gou & Menglong Lin “…Additionally, male swimmers showed slightly greater improvements than female swimmers. Conclusion In conclusion, core stability training appears effective in enhancing short-distance swimming performance. …”

Yoshimoto, T., Chiba, Y., Mizukubo, S., Sato, K., Ohnuma, H., Takai, Y. “…In the 200 m sprint, it remains unclear whether modifying pacing distribution can lead to improved performance. This study aimed to address this question through three approaches: (1) cross-sectional analysis of world-class sprinters, (2) longitudinal analysis of an elite Japanese sprinter, and (3) an intervention involving pacing strategy modification for that sprinter. …”

Kudo, S., Yanai, T., Matsuda, Y. “…This study introduced power generated by underwater strokes as a crucial factor for assessing front crawl performance in the stroke phases and identified key segmental rotations that lead to the increased that power and, consequently, improved performance.…”

Imanian, B., Hemmatinafar, M., Maymandinejad, I., Binazade, M. R., Jäger, R., Jahan, Z., Naseri, K., Rezaei, R., Suzuki, K. “…Any reference to gut-muscle-axis modulation is hypothesis-generating, as stool sequencing and metabolite profiling were not performed. Larger, sex-inclusive trials incorporating in-water, stroke-embedded assessments and microbiome/metabolomic profiling are warranted.…”

Rezaei, H., Gheitasi, M., Hosseini, S. M. “…Conclusion Corrective exercises were effective in improving postural alignment, range of motion, and shoulder pain symptomatology, but did not significantly affect swimming performance. …”

Neto, F. R., dos Santos, L. G. T. F., de Campos, L. F. C. C., Costa, R. R. G., Winckler, C. “…Background: Tailored training methods for 200-m races may improve in Paralympic canoe sprint (PCS) kayaking. …”

Arc-Chagnaud, C., Dugué, B., Pla, R., Bouzigon, R., Bosquet, L., D-Day Consortium, Dupuy, O. “…Daily partial body cryostimulation exposure of 3 min at -110°C was performed (or not) during a consecutive period of 5 days, after the evening training session. …”

Zhang, L., Li, H., Wang, T., Chen, C. “…The main workout consisted of circuit-based HIIT involving eight exercises, each performed for 20 s with 10 s of rest, totaling 230 s per circuit, with 3-min interset intervals, repeated for three sets. …”

Liu, S., Gou, P., Lin, M. “…Introduction: Respiratory muscle training, which targets the inspiratory and/or expiratory muscles to enhance respiratory efficiency, is recognized as a method for improving athletic performance; however, its effectiveness in enhancing swimming performance remains controversial. …”

Wang, Z., Liu, K., Zhao, X., Gao, J. “…Conclusion: Combined aquatic and dry-land training—especially W + DRT—most effectively improves swimming performance and sport-specific skills. …”

Carin, R., Faucher, C., Connes, P., Viard, V., Martin, M., Ducray, M., Pla, R., Merino, M., Gaston, A.-F., Lacroix, J., Doucende, G., Joly, P., Stauffer, E., Brugniaux, J. V., Verges, S., Brocherie, F., Pichon, A. P., Robach, P., Nader, E. “…Although 400-m swimming performance was not significantly improved 10 days post-LHTH (-3.8 ± 5.1 s), its change was associated with Hbmass variations. …”

Hung, T. M., Hai, P. T., Quan, P. Q. M. “…Given that sprint performance is a decisive factor in competitive swimming, the study aimed to address existing performance limitations through a structured and context-appropriate training program. …”

Grznár, L., Labudová, J., Púzser, K., Odráška, L. “…These findings support prior research suggesting that controlled hypoxic exposure leads to beneficial physiological adaptations, including enhanced oxygen utilization, respiratory control, and improved athletic performance under limited oxygen availability. …”

Malinovsky, M. S., Arishin, A. V., Pogrebnoy, A. I.

Lopes, C. R., Moreira, A., Braz, T. V., Borges, T. O., Germano, M. D., Souza, D., Coutts, A. J., Aoki, M. S. “…In conclusion, the study found that performance improvement occurred after the 10-week periodized training plan, with weekly ITL correlating with recovery status and immuno-endocrine responses. …”

Lee, J. H., Hopkins, J. T., Hong, J., Son, S. J.

Reddin, J. C. C. “…Improvements in gym technology for quantifying athletic performance, like the GymAware linear position transducer, have increased the number of key performance indicators (KPIs) available to canoe kayak coaches; making it difficult to determine which KPIs are important, accurate and reliable. …”

Gonzalez-Rave, J. M., Sandbakk, Ø., Lopez-Hernandez, A., Expósito, S. R.-B., Valero, F., de la Cruz, V. M., Turner, A. P. “…Conclusion: A 6-month training period with traditionally periodized endurance training failed to significantly improve repeated-sprint swimming performance, [La] response, or CMJ height in trained swimmers across the 2 training phases. …”

Kwok, W. Y. “…First, Chapter 3 was a systematic review and meta-analysis of existing research about the effects of S&C training on FC and biomechanical performance. The positive results suggested S&C training was statistically significant on improving FC performance and strokes biomechanics. …”

Sanpasitt, C., Intiraporn, C., Yimlamai, T. “…However, the CON group did not show these improvements. Conclusion: These findings indicate that incorporation of inclined speed bounding into CT over 6 weeks is more effective in improving sprint acceleration performance compared with horizontal CT, irrespective with Hoffman reflex modulations.…”
