Evaluation of aerobic and anaerobic fitness of competitive and non-competitive swimmers using the critical speed concept

The results of this study show that critical speed calculated from the slope of the linear regression of swimming distance and time differentiates swimmers of different training and performance levels, irrespective of the test distances used to calculate it, and may therefore be used to monitor changes in aerobic fitness. However, the y-intercept of the regression line, gave erroneous and inconsistent results and may not provide reliable information about the anaerobic swimming capacity
