| Video Discription | Theoretically the maximum length of one (arm)stroke is the length of our outstretched arms. In practise though the stroke length is shorter than this due to factors like a bent arm at hand entry, incomplete rotation and an short pull-through. Logically of course, shorter people have shorter strokes and taller people have longer strokes. Our stroke rate is how many times our arms makes strokes in one minute. So if you see 60 spm, it is referring to 60 strokes per minute, basically how quickly our arms turn. The shorter our arms are the faster we have to turn them to cover the same distance so inadvertently creating a higher stroke rate and vice versa. If we input this into the equation, our optimum speed is then, in the sweet spot, where we can hold the length of our stroke at the highest possible stroke rate. AOiVrcjpOhM |
