EB permitted performing 8 more repetitions compared to WP when the same load was added at standing position. Adding the load immediately above the sticking point significantly (p less then 0.05) increased 24.7% the kilograms used and permitted participants to perform 3 more repetitions. Internal load measurements suggested that EB could significantly (p less then 0.05) reduce the perceived effort rate and/or physiological stress depending on their application. EB are a suitable device to load the bar for squat exercises in fit young men. According to the necessities of the subjects, if the load with EB is added at different points of the range of motion, it could be possible to overcome the sticking point, to maximize the performance and/or modulate cardiovascular and perceptual responses.The purposes of this study were to establish relationships between selected underwater kinematics and the starting and turning performances and to quantify kinematic differences between these segments in sprint butterfly swimming. Fourteen male swimmers performed 50 m maximal butterfly swimming in a short course pre-calibrated pool. The entire race was filmed by a multi-camera system, which quantified the forward head displacement and velocity (vxhead ) throughout the race with a sampling frequency of 50 Hz. The time taken between 0-15 m (T0-15 ) and 25-35 m (T25-35 ) as well as 16 kinematic variables were acquired from the data provided by the system and manual video processing for further analysis. The mean underwater velocity (UW-vxmean ) was related to both T0-15 and T25-35 (r = -0.70 and -0.95, respectively; p less then 0.01). UW-vxmean was positively correlated with vxhead during the first kick (r = 0.84, p less then 0.001) in the start segment and with vxhead during the last kick in the t
