Adaptación de los métodos de entrenamiento a las particularidades de la natación

The swimming has special circumstances when it comes to train and monitor physical activity. This has meant that over time have arisen research and resources that enable us to control the training process effectively with alternatives to the classic variables. In addition, the physiological behaviour in the aquatic environment varies from the exercise out of it, which also makes some methodological adaptations are necessary. Currently swimming is a growing sport for its great importance in the triathlon, and new technologies have also managed to offer new avenues for understanding and control of the training process and training. The correct handling of the variables that determine the training load is the key to the adaptations that bring us a better or help us counter the limiting factors of performance. This paper shows the main changes required volume programming, training intensity and density in the aquatic environment.
