Abstrakt: Inspiratory muscles pre-activation (IM PA ) has been studied to improve subsequent performance in swimming. However, the effects of IM PA on various parameters in swimmers are still unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of IM PA on the mechanical parameters, physiological responses, and their possible correlations with swimming performance. A total of 14 young swimmers (aged 16 ± 0 years) underwent a 30-s all-out tethered swimming test, preceded or not by IM PA, a load of 40% of the maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), and with a volume of 2 sets of 15 repetitions. The mechanical (strength, impulse, and fatigue index) and physiological parameters (skin temperature and lactatemia) and the assessment of perceived exertion and dyspnea were monitored in both protocols. The IM PA used did not increase the swimming force, and skin temperature, decrease blood lactate concentration, or subjective perception of exertion and dyspnea after the high-intensity tethered swimming exercises. Positive correlations were found between mean force and blood lactate (without IM PA : r = 0.62, P = 0.02; with IM PA : r = 0.65, P = 0.01). The impulse was positively correlated with blood lactate (without IM PA : r = 0.71, P < 0.01; with IM PA : r = 0.56, P = 0.03). Our results suggest that new IM PA protocols, possibly with increased volume, should be developed in order to improve the performance of young swimmers.
