While a single technique element cannot guarantee success, American Lydia Jacoby\u2019s Olympic victory suggests that using science can provide a competitive advantage.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Selecting swimming technique elements by relying on conventional wisdom rather than scientific fact is unfortunate, but not a mystery. Many people distrust science on existential issues, much less sport issues. The response of Americans to climate change and COVID vaccination are two contemporary and critical examples of distrust in science. Possibly, a recent Olympic success can help persuade the swimming community to trust science.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #2fbad0;\">BELIEF IN CLIMATE CHANGE<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nA recent survey found that only 70% of Americans believe that \u201cclimate change is happening\u201d (Leiserowitz, et al., 2021). This finding is surprising, given the convincing data on global temperature over the last 140 years (NASA, 2021). The graph in Fig. 1 shows that relative to the average temperature for 1951 to 1980, there has been a steady increase in temperature for the past 50 years.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #2fbad0;\">RESPONSE TO THE PANDEMIC<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nSimilar to the controversy surrounding climate change, many Americans deny the scientific data supporting vaccines and their near-worldwide success with preventing COVID-19. Currently, 75% of American adults have received at least one dose of the vaccine (Smith-Schoenwalder, 2021). When verified scientific strategies to deal with a virus responsible for so many deaths are not trusted and not used by a substantial proportion of the population, it is hardly a mystery that scientific strategies to help swimmers swim faster are often ignored.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #2fbad0;\">MINIMAL USE OF SCIENCE IN SWIMMING<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nUnfortunately for swimming, distrust in science limits swimmer performance. There are numerous scientific findings that can help swimmers go faster\u2014although they are seldom used. For example, the measurement of any one of three variables provides information about technique that can improve every swimmer\u2019s performance:<br \/>\n\u2022 Intracycle body velocity<br \/>\n\u2022 Hand force<br \/>\n\u2022 Index of coordination<\/p>\n<p>One of the preceding factors (intracycle body velocity) presents a strong argument for a scientific as opposed to conventional approach to breaststroke breathing. This was illustrated by the recent Olympic success of American Lydia Jacoby using a technique that is less conventional, but more scientifically effective.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/issues\/2021\/swimming-world-magazine-november-2021-issue-pdf-only\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">To read more about swimming science and how Lydia Jacoby&#8217;s technique is supported by research,<br \/>\nClick here to download the full November issue of Swimming World Magazine, available now!<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Dr. Rod Havriluk is a sport scientist and consultant who specializes in swimming technique instruction and analysis.
