Abstract: The article presents a computational and experimental studies on the front crawl swimming at the end of entry-and-stretch phase and its role in the global coordination of swimming. The study uses kinematic, experimental, and numerical analysis. The study reveals that the entry-and-stretch can be decomposed into two sub-phases such as stretching of short duration and rotation which is made with the tense arm of longer duration.
