| Research Abstract |
A swimming start motion on a starting block with a back plate was investigated by motion analysis and force measurements of front-leg, rear-leg and hands. Adult male competitive swimmers participated in this study. The findings based on this study were as follows ; Rear-legs contributes the generation of horizontal take-off velocity and head-sinking moment, front-legs force generation acts against gravity and the direct contributions of horizontal velocity and head-sinking moment by hands are small.
