A measuring procedure is described for continuously recording the intracycle velocities over a simulated competition. Different measurement principles (Karpovich 1980; Kent et al. 1975) are to be determined to measure velocities in the fluid medium water. For reasons of a relatively unrestricted measurement and simple technical realisation which also includes robustness and preciseness of the measurement apparatus, we have decided upon an anemometer based on an impeller. The sensitivity of the sensor is determined in the medium water with a flow velocity of only 0.03 m/sec. This procedure serves to optimize the technique of swimmers by means of a simultaneous analysis of high speed video recording and intracycle velocity fluctuation pattern. Examples are given for the technique analysis with elite swimmers as well as with junior swimmers.
