Abbreviations: rST (relative swim time); rStart (relative start time); rTurn (relative turn time); rSprint (relative maximal sprint velocity); rSI (relative stroke index); rLBP (relative lower body power). Significant predictor variables (p < 0.05) are denoted in bold with adjustments made for one-sided hypothesis testing in the calculation of the p value.
