Race Analysis
When you get the swim meet video home you will need to download a meet results page for the events you swam. There are separate sheets for the 100's, 200's, 400's, 500's, 1000's, and 1650's. You should print a sheet for each race. If you swam the 100 free, 100 fly, and 100 back you will need three separate meet results sheets. This will allow you to put several meets on one sheet and really help when comparing swims.

You will also need a schedule of the events. This can be printed from the Loveland Swim Club Web site -- just go to meets and click on entries. The Loveland Fall meet info can be downloaded and printed to help you find your races. I suggest you start with your first race and complete it before moving to the next race. When you return the tape to your team please rewind so it starts at the beginning. If you want you can include the order of events in the tape case so the next person does not have to print this out.

Warning: These 3 steps take time but the value is immeasurable!

First View - I suggest you time splits on the first time through. Remember that 50 splits are posted on the bulletin board. I really encourage you to get 25 splits when possible. Record them onto a rough draft and put them on the meet results form after you are done.

Second View - Second time through record stroke counts - do as many 25's as possible (as long as you can see complete length)

Final View - record turn over rates. You do this by timing 2 complete stroke cycles and dividing by 2. You want to record to the 100th of a second. I strongly encourage you to do this for each 25.

Now put this on paper and with some study we can identify your concentration variable.

Race Analysis Record Sheets
These are Excel spreadsheets and pdf files. Download the Excel spreadsheet if you want to be able to edit the file on your computer. Use the pdf file if you do not have access to Excel or if you want to simply print a copy of the file.
