On the cover
The role of medicine and science in the world of swimming is growing. Research and application are playing an increasingly large part in the success of swimmers and swimming facilities in the United States and around the world.
With the help of science, a butterflier such as double world record holder Mary T. Meagher (pictured) can continue to push back the boundaries of human performance. This issue of SWIMMING TECHNIQUE looks at some new concepts in the physiology of training, as well as probable trends of science and its ties with swimming.
