abstract
- In paralympic swimming, the biomechanical parameters related to performance are effectively determined according to the potentialities and peculiarities of each athlete. However, a clear integrated approach to these parameters for swimmers with physical disabilities at the speed of maximum oxygen uptake (vV̇O2max) is still practically non-existent.
- The study is part of a Ph.D. project and the first author was funded by the Universidade Estadual do Ceará, Brazil. We thank swimmers, coaches, and all those who were involved in this study.
