Abstract

In this experiment the relationship between muscles of lower extremities and back muscles and air/water was analyzed. The main goal was to compare timing of selected muscles during cycling on land and in water.

Timing of muscles is similar for both enviroments. The influence of water was reflected in the speed of pedaling and in the level of muscle activity.
