What are Swim Training Patterns?

In this conversation, Dr. Christoph Bartneck discusses the intersection of swimming and computer science, exploring how mathematical patterns can enhance swim training. He introduces the concept of a formal swim markup language to improve data exchange and training efficiency. The discussion also delves into the visualization of swimming techniques, the importance of mental engagement in training, and the aesthetic appeal of mathematics. Christoph shares insights on the challenges of writing his book and his vision for creating a global community around swimming and mathematics.Takeaways Programming languages can optimize swim training. There's a gap in literature between math and sports science. Data exchange in swimming training is challenging. Visualizing swimming techniques aids in understanding. Mathematical patterns can enhance training routines. Repetitive tasks in swimming can be likened to repetitive songs. Engagement in training is crucial for success.
