Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the difference of pulse wave velocity (PWV) between college swimmers and normal students. Methods: Ten well trained swimmers (20.90±1.29 yrs, SG) and 10 normal students (20.30±0.48 yrs, CG) volunteered as the subjects. After signing consent forms and filling the basic data, subjects were asked to lie down for 10 minutes and take 2 minutes PWV measurement. Then a 15 meter PACER test and 5 minutes PWV tested. Independent t-test was used to test the difference of blood pressure (BP), PWV, heart rate (HR), and 15 meter pacer distance run between two groups. The alpha level was set on .05. Results: Swimmers have significant lower HR and higher pacer test scores. Both SG and CG have significant decreased in PWV after pacer test. No differences were found on PWV between two groups. Conclusions: Although swimmers have better cardiovascular fitness and lower HR, their pulse wave velocity had no difference from normal students.
