- Abstract
Purpose. Swimming analysis on up to 200 m events pointed out that the first 15 m plays an important role in the performance result. Hence the hydrodynamic ability to glide under water in a streamline position. Should not be neglected during training, especially in young competitors. Glide in one of five important tips of training .The purpose of this study was to identify Training Program (contains land exercise and water drills. And its effect on the glide performance in (15 m) crawls and breaststrokes in young swimmers Methods. Sample contains (30 young swimmers) dived into two groups (control group) & (experimental group) , each one 15 young swimmers male ( mean ± SD , age 13 ± 1.5 years , height 166 ± 8 cm , body mass 52.3 ± 11.3 kg. Study used tests to measure gliding includes: Starting block and asked to dive and swim foe 15 m crawl CR and 15 m breaststroke (BR) in two different trails. Later subjects underwent a series of hydrodynamic tests such as : diving and gliding under water in a streamline position for 8 m ( DG ) , pushing off from the wall and gliding underwater position 8 m (PG) , pushing off from the wall , gilding and swimming crawl for 12.5 m (PGC) , pushing from the wall , gliding and swimming breaststroke for 12.5 m (PGB) , sculling while floating on the back for 10m (SC) . Time was recorded. Results. There was a statistically significant between the two measures (pre &post) for the experimental group and between the two (post) measures for control and experimental groups. Conclusions. As a result the specific exercise program has been improved performance of gliding through crawl and breaststroke for young swimmers.
