My claim is that if swimmer A and swimmer B both achieve the exact same times in 100 of stroke USRPT sets, then the swimmer with the lower stroke rate (strokes per second) will swim faster in the meet.

Of course I did not learn this in a laboratory – it is an observation based on what I have seen with the 4 swimmers I train.

Has anyone else observed this? If the answer is yes then maybe this should be examined by those who use and/or study USRPT.
