Abstract

This study determined if the parameters of the critical velocity (CV) model could be obtained from estimated performance times at various swimming distances. Fourteen collegiate swimmers provided their actual fastest long-course times (AT_com) at standard distances and inquired completion times (IT_com) at non-standard distances. The total distance (TD) versus AT_com and IT_com relationships were used to estimate the parameters of the CV model. . . .
