The Physics of Swimming

Sport Science and medicine plays a very important part in the performance of a swimmer. Science can help fine tune the athlete, as in the end even a few hundredths of a second often decide the result of races. Sports Biomechanics is the application of physics and mechanics to the human body during sport. In such a technical sport such as swimming, it plays a very important part. Humans aren't the best swimmers; we can swim at 5 mph compared to a sailfish which can move through the water at 65 mph.

Original Music

Visit Cody Smith for great original acoustic rock music from a new artist.

Baseball Shopping

Found a great site with baseball equipment and baseball uniforms.
It is called Dynamic Baseball and it is part of the Dynamic Network. These sites (one for every sport) are sort of like a shopping portal. This one also is good for baseball coaching as well as baseball training. Check it out.

Electrolyte Replacement

Enlyten™ Electrolyte SportStrips™ is an innovative new product that replaces the electrolytes our bodies lose while exercising. Fluids consumed during exercise typically contain both carbohydrates and electrolytes. The amount of each varies by product. Typically these drinks have between 2 and 8 percent carbohydrate with a large range of electrolyte concentrations within them. A major limitation associated with re-hydration and electrolyte repletion is absorption. During exercise our bodies divert blood from our stomach and intestines to our exercising muscles. This leads to an increased gastric emptying time and altered intestinal absorption. Additionally, the addition of carbohydrate to these drinks can alter an athlete’s digestive ability. Slowed gastric emptying combined with altered absorption will limit the availability of the fluid and electrolytes we orally consume to be used by our bodies. Many athletes performing at high intensities will have a difficult time ingesting an adequate amount of fluid to maintain this homeostasis due to these changes. How exactly performance is adversely affected needs further research, but it is clear that current electrolyte delivery methods have major limitations.Enlyten Sport Strips are absorbed very differently. They are designed to bypass the inherent inadequacies of gastric and intestinal absorption during exercise. SportStrips are absorbed directly into the blood stream through the buccal mucosa (in the mouth) and thus is affected by neither gastric emptying nor colonic irritability.
