Swim Competition

February 28, 2020 By Zola Zeester 1 Comment

Recreational swimming can be traced back to prehistoric times.  It became a competitive activity starting in 1830s England, and today, competitive swimming is one of the most popular Olympic sports.

In competitive swimming, the goal is to break personal or world records while beating competitors in an event.  There are varied distance individual events in competition, including the butterfly, backstroke, freestyle, and individual medley as well as freestyle or medley relay (teams of four swimmers), and each swim stroke requires specific technique with rules governing the acceptable form.  There are also regulations concerning athlete’s swimsuits, caps, jewelry, and injury tape and competition pool requirements.  The international governing body for competitive swimming is the Fédération Internationale de Natation (“International Swimming Federation”), aka ‘FINA’, and there are a large number of recognized national federations throughout the world.

Training for competitive swimming requires many hours working out in the pool (usually twice a day, 6 days a week) and outside the pool (serious gym time lifting weights, running, yoga, pilates, etc).  Prior to a competition, athletes typically decrease their training workload in order to rest their bodies.

 

The TYR Pro Swim Series is one of the most competitive events series on the USA Swimming calendar, attracting between 400-600 of the world’s top swimmers, including USA Swimming National Team members, National Junior Team members and top-50, world-ranked swimmers.

If you missed the live stream broadcast of the TYR Pro Swim Series in Knoxville event, there’s still time watch video recordings of the competition.  Just click/tap the “Watch Again” button located on the media player below or select from ‘Event Posts’ in top right corner.
