Regangan (Stretching)

Tahukah anda mengapa kejang kaki kerap berlaku semasa kita berenang? Jawapannya kerana kita tidak melakukan regangan (stretching) sebelum turun berenang.Otot dan sendi kita terkejut dengan aktiviti di luar kebiasaan dimana berenang memerlukan seluruh anggota bekerja secara sistematik dan tenaga tambahan diperlukan pada masa ini.

Untuk kita mencegah sebarang kecederaan fizikal terutamanya pada bahagian otot, kita perlu meregangkan bahagian otot-otot tertentu terlebih dahulu sebelum kita boleh menceburi bidang latihan utama dalam aktiviti sukan itu sendiri. Biasanya, jangka masa keseluruhan latihan regangan ini dilakukan dalam tempoh 10 ke 15 minit.

Selalunya, dalam aktiviti regangan ini, kita akan melenturkan satu demi satu anggota badan bermula pada bahagian leher dahulu dengan diikuti bahagian tangan, pinggang dan akhir sekali kaki. Bagi setiap aktiviti regangan, ia dilakukan dengan melenturkan anggota badan itu di sendinya secara perlahan-lahan sehingga kita terasa sedikit kesakitan atau keperitan dan kemudian itu kita menahan lenturan itu pada suatu kedudukan yang paling jauh atau terdaya secara statik dalam tempoh 10 hingga 30 saat. Selanjutnya, kita hendaklah ulangi pergerakan lenturan itu sebanyak 2 atau 3 kali sebelum kita boleh berpindah ke satu atur acara lenturan yang lain pula.

Meregangkan otot akan menambahkan kelenturan secara menyeluruh pada beberapa anggota sendi kita. Sukan renang adalah antara aktiviti latihan yang memerlukan pelbagai kelenturan pergerakan supaya kita boleh melakukan berbagai-bagai kuak atau gaya renang dengan terbaik dan sempurna. Contohnya, perenang tidak akan boleh berenang dengan terbaik dan terpantas jika anggota badannya keras dan sengal.

Justeru itu, semua perenang tanpa mengira had umur mereka seharusnya membuat latihan regangan sebelum dan selepas sesuatu sesi latihan renang, sama ada di darat atau di air bagi mengekalkan dan memperbaiki kelenturan keseluruhan anggota badan perenang.

Triathlon (Swim,Bike,Run)

A triathlon is a multi-sport event involving the completion of three continuous and sequential endurance events. While many variations of the sport exist, triathlon, in its most popular form, involves swimming, cycling, and running in immediate succession over various distances.

Triathletes compete for fastest overall course completion time, including timed "transitions" between the individual swim, bike, and run components.

Triathlon races vary in distance. According to the International Triathlon Union, and USA Triathlon, the main international race distances are :

1. Sprint distance (750m swim, 20km bike, 5km run)

2. Intermediate/Standard distance, commonly referred to as "Olympic distance" (1.5km swim, 40km ride, 10km run)

3) Long Course (1.9km swim, 90km ride, 21.1km run) such as the Half  Ironman

4) Ultra Distance (3.8km swim, 180km ride, and a marathon: 42.2km run)

The most recognized branded Ultra Distance is the Ironman triathlon.

Transition areas are positioned both between the swim and bike segments (T1), and between the bike and run segments (T2) and are where the switches from swimming to cycling and cycling to running occur.

These areas are used to store bicycles, performance apparel, and any other accessories needed for preparing and for the next stage of the race. The time spent in T1 and T2 is included in the overall time of the race.

Transitions areas can vary in size depending on the number of participants expected for the race. In addition, these areas provide a social headquarters prior to the race.

The nature of the sport focuses primarily on persistent and often periodized training in each of the three disciplines, as well as combination workouts and general strength conditioning.

Cara Terapung di Dalam Air

Kebolehan untuk terapung di dalam air merupakan cita-cita semua orang samada yang tidak pandai berenang ataupun yang baru mula belajar berenang (secara sendirian). Kerap kali kita mendengar alasan orang yang takut untuk belajar berenang kerana mereka tidak tahu terapung dalam air.

Dibawah ini ditunjukkan satu kaedah Keapungan "Egg Beater", dimana keseluruhan kepala berada di atas permukaan air bersama-sama kedua tangan diangkat ke-atas. Bagi mereka yang baru belajar berenang, teknik ini mungkin terlalu sukar dan tidak menjadi apabila dilakukan. Kebiasaannya bagi mereka yang telah mahir dan yakin dengan air dapat melakukannya tanpa banyak masaalah.

Renang Santai / Rekreasi

Renang rekreasi dianggap oleh banyak orang sebagai cara melegakan diri serta senaman penuh badan yang baik. Banyak gaya renang adalah sesuai untuk renang rekreasi.

Kebanyakan perenang rekreasi lebih menyukai gaya yang mengekalkan kepala mereka di atas permukaan air, dengan pemulihan lengan di bawah air.

Kuak dada,  Kuak sisi, dan 'Kuak anjing mengayuh' merupakan gaya yang paling biasa digunakan dalam renang rekreasi, tetapi pemulihan lengan di luar air dalam gaya bebas atau gaya rama-rama membekalkan kelebihan yang diberikan oleh perbezaan rintangan antara udara dengan air.(http://ms.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renang)

Nothing is more essential to a swimmer than air. Yet few swimmers truly understand how to breathe efficiently. Not just to get air, but to integrate breathing seamlessly with the stroke. Breathing is sometimes viewed as a liability or inconvenience, but when you do it right, breathing can actually make your stroke better. This DVD shows you how.

Contents:

Introduction – Learn the two key skills of breathing: (1) Head-Spine Alignment and (2) Breathing with body movement.

Water Bowl Exercises – Invaluable if you’ve never been comfortable in water. Useful for understanding subtleties you probably missed before, if you’re already a skilled swimmer.

Shallow Water Exercises – Separate critical breathing skills from stroking. Rehearse them in simple ways. Breathe more efficiently as a result.

Breathing Skills in Drills - A simple breathing technique that helps you drill better. And an advanced breathing technique that helps you transition from drill to swim better.

Whole Stroke Breathing Skills – A detailed study with focal points for practice of breathing technique for Freestyle, Breaststroke and Butterfly.
