 OBJECTIVES
• Identifying the Background of the sport

• Recognize the Anatomical structure of sports/ Parts of the Body

used in playing sport

• Identifying Scientific functions of muscles and its sports

performance

• Give scientific preparation for sports competition

 SWIMMING
• 2,000 BC
• First indoor swimming pool, St George's baths was opened to the public -1828
• Competitive recreational activity- ENGLAND 1830’s
• 1880, when the first national governing body, the Amateur swimming association was formed
• 1889- VIENNA ;First amateur swimming competition in Europe
• 1892- First world Women swimming competition held in Scotland
• 1896- First Olympic Games in Athens
• In 1908, the world swimming association, Federation Iternationale de Natation (FINA), was
formed.
• Women's swimming was introduced into the OLYMPICS in 1912
ATTIRE/ FACILITY
• 50 metres (160 ft) (long course) long and WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
25 metres (82 ft) wide, with ten lanes POOL
labelled zero to nine (or one to ten in
some pools; zero and nine (or one and
ten) are usually left empty in semi-finals
and finals); the lanes must be at least 2.5
metres (8.2 ft) wide. They will be
equipped with starting blocks at both
ends of the pool and most will have
automatic officiating equipment, including
touch pads to record times and sensors to
ensure the legality of relay takeovers.
The pool must have a minimum depth of
two metres.

What are the muscles do I use when I Swim?
 FREE STYLE
ARM: Thenars (hand muscle), brachioradialis (forearm
flex muscle), flexor digitorum profundus (forearm extend
muscle), biceps (sometimes referred to as GUNS),
triceps, deltoids (shoulder muscle)
NECK: sternocleidomastoid (neck muscle)
TRUNK: pectoralis, serratus anterior (side muscles),
external oblique (outer ab muscles), rectus abdominus
(abs), latissimus dorsi (back muscle), trapezius, spinus
erectus (muscles that support your spine), teres major,
teres minor, rhomboid major, rhomboid minor (all of
these "major and minor" muscles help make up the
shoulder muscles), gluteus maximus (rear-end muscles),
abductor magnus (groin)
LEG: quadriceps, hamstrings, gastrocnemius (calf
muscle), tibialis anterior (shin muscle), flexor digitorum
brevis (foot muscles)
 BACK STROKE
SIMILAR WITH FREE STYLE
 BREAST STROKE
The muscles used are about the same
for breaststroke and butterfly as
freestyle. It is just a slightly different
group of primary muscles used. The
primary muscles used in breaststroke
are the hand, inner forearm, biceps,
pecs, lats, groin, glutes, and calf.
- SLIGHT RELAXATION POINT
- -GLIDING
 BUTTERFLY STROKE
There are a lot of big muscle groups
used in butterfly. That is why it is
commonly considered a very powerful
stroke and can wear you down in a
matter of 25 yards. Pecs, lasts, quads,
hamstrings, calves, shoulders, biceps, and
triceps are all big-time power muscles.
 FIVE MAIN MUSCLES
