Abstract

Most athletes have minimal speed in terms of starting compared with their cyclic movement whereas a good start contributes to the swimming performance. So, the purpose of this research is to know the more effective and efficient placement of leg position and efficient for the start of backstroke-swim style. The samples were eight swimmers (average age, weight, and height: 18.9 years old, 62kg, 174cm) from Aquatic Student Activity Unit at UPI who became participants of this study, using purposive sampling technique. The swimmers‘ starting movement was recorded with 60Hz camera, and then applied into movement analysis software: kinovea. The analyzed reaction components were (1) initial angle, (2) angular velocity, and (3) reaction time between the placement of parallel and staggered leg positions. The results of t-test analysis showed that there is no difference in the initial angle, angular velocity, and the reaction time between the placement of parallel and staggered feet placements on the bottom starting of backstroke-swim style (p> 0.05).
