Sports Council Provides Video Analysis Support to National Swimming Team… Kim Woo-min “A Lot of Help”

The expression 'good at water' is often given to athletes who overcome their physical disadvantage and swim backwards. 파워볼실시간

The same goes for Hwang Sun-woo (21, Gangwon Provincial Office), the star of Korean swimming.

He is 187cm tall, which makes him one of the shortest freestyle sprinters.

The expression “good at catching water” is not just a metaphor.

The fact that Hwang Seon-woo is good at catching water is also shown in numbers.

Kim Hyung-seok, deputy director of the medical science department of the Korea Sports Council, explained the video analysis technology provided to the swimming management team at the swimming center in Jincheon Athletes’ Village, Chungbuk Province, on the 26th.

It is a method of taking a video of the entire stadium and analyzing the speed, acceleration, distance traveled, and direction of each section of the athlete.

Detailed analysis is possible even in meters (m).

Through this video analysis, Hwang Sun-woo's 'ability to ride water well' was proven.

Vice President Kim said, "The number of strokes is an indicator of how much the arm is stroked per minute, but having more strokes is not necessarily good.

This is because the strength is lost quickly," and explained, "Compared to other players, Hwang Sun-woo has a relatively long DPS (Distance Per Stroke), that is, the distance traveled when the arm is stroked once."

Even when swimming the same distance, Hwang Sun-woo moves efficiently while reducing physical exhaustion.

In addition, Hwang Sun-woo said that the ups and downs in each section have decreased compared to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics held three years ago.

Sunwoo Hwang passed the preliminaries in 1st place overall in the 200m freestyle competition in Tokyo, but ended up in 7th place in the finals due to a failure to control his pace.

Deputy Director Kim Hyun-seok said, “Hwang Sun-woo’s ups and downs have decreased a lot when looking at the overall average race,” and cited his victory in the 2024 World Championships as the basis for this.

Sunwoo Hwang was the first to touch the pad without being caught up in the pace of Luke Hobson (USA) in the 200m freestyle competition held in February this year.

Deputy Director Kim said, “I knew that Hobson would hit in the 100-150m range, and Hwang Sun-woo went with a strategy of not overpacing and focusing his efforts in the last 50m,” and added, “The analysis data was very helpful.”

Kim Woo-min (22, Gangwon Provincial Office), who represents Korean mid- to long-distance management, also said that video analysis support is helpful.

Kim Woo-min said, "I had trouble seeing how I was swimming with my own eyes, but through video analysis, I was able to know exactly how I turned my arms and how many seconds I went (for each section).

It helped me a lot, especially in the second half of the race. 바카라사이트

“I also found some areas where my pace dropped,” he said.
