Brilliant analysis. Love Pan's swimming, so exciting and so brave. He did the nearly perfect race (dive less so). His kick is out of this world. Can't wait to see what he does in the future!
Extraordinary analysis, detailed and in depth. Good job.
Is just the beginning of this young swimmer
You see, THIS is the kind of thing we need, a go at a critical breakdown in terms of his technique and so on.
Instead of you know what crazy crap....
Pan is great! 👏😍🥰💯❤️
Pan deserves the win. His skill is the best among these swimmers
I do hate that it’s slightly tainted by the systemic doping scandal of his teammates, but he’s never tested positive and didn’t come out of nowhere.
@@therealgigglebop
He was not the member yet of the National before Tokyo. So, he is not one of the 23 peoples
@@therealgigglebophow is he tainted?
@@therealgigglebop The doping of his teammates have been explained clearly. Hence, they were allowed to compete at the Tokyo Olympics. It is not a scandal.
HE WAS 1500M SWIMMER GROWING UP AS A LITTLE KID, SO HE GOT THE Aerobic Base FOR THE SECOND 50.
His left arm have high elbow because he breathe on left side , I think his technique not only help him go faster but also helps with less water resistance
A swimmer is like a boat, the larger the size and weight the boat is, the more energy you will need to push it forward. Pan is a light size and slender swimmer, so the advantage is his in a game, compare to other larger swimmers if they all have the same propelling strength.
Pan-faced Pan vs Charmless Charmers....wonderful stuff!
very likely he will break his own world record again, in an interview right after he swam the 46.40, he claimed that there are still areas to fine tune in that race, hence he was not completely satisfied with his own performance, also objectively speaking, he was only 19 when he swam 46.40, when most top tier swimmers peak their performance around 21 - 24
@@kumamon3765 totally agree, it’s very exciting & I’m looking forward to what he can do 🔥
very good analysis ! stroke count and kick envelope that minimize water resistance should also be addressed.
I call a 45 within the next 2 years
I think it's a very real possibility, as well. Then applying logic with considerations that the pool was supposedly "slow" his speed was dampened, his starts could be improved (good observation of the dive) and even Pan has pointed out that his right stroke could be tweaked (while he thinks in that swim, his left stroke was perfect), yeah, watch out world, sub-46 of a 45 is coming. Choo, choo! Plus, Pan's time has been dramatically been dropping.
Needless to say, I am eager for the Singapore world championship.
He's capable of swimming competitively for the 200m, 400m and 800m (as he was originally a 1500m swimmer), though he claims he's not. I think he hasn't quite figured out his pacing for those longer distances, especially during the prelims where he might take them too casually (barely squeaked through the cut for the 100m finals!). So, even more exciting prospects.
@@someone5002what pan said about his right arm? and where i can find it
@@LucasSalatin I will have to try to find it, which might be a needle in a haystack case, as I have to search for the video interviews that are translated (not fluent in Mandarin here). From what I can remember, he didn't get too much into it other than there were details of his right hand stroke that he felt could have been better.
Stay tuned. I will post the video link when I do find it. (I really should just bookmark or save his video interviews!)
@@LucasSalatin I'm still searching, but I did find an English translated interview where he spoke more of other areas that were flawed in his turn.
"After I turned around, during the 50m to 60m to 65m stage, I was 0.27 second faster than before ... But actually, the details of my turn were not good as before. The underwater leg used to be hit 4 times. It's 3 now. So, after I go back, I need to carefully analyze why my performance has improved this time."
ua-cam.com/video/OrFL4dJzlPg/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
I think the 4 from 3 underwater leg must be in reference of his kicks, which LSE touched on. Maybe LSE can weigh in on why 4 down to 3 might lead Pan to believe that was bad. Better to stay underwater with the faster dolphin kicks?
We need to see at least half the field doing sub 47 before we see the first sub 46. Don’t think it will come very soon.
GOAT PAN WILL BE DEFINITELY SMASHING HIS OWN 46.40 BY A SUB 46, 45.98 (21.99 + 23.99) IN THE COMING 4 YRS OG CYCLE.
45.92
From a flat start….
I saw a video comparing Pan and chalmers side by side, you can tell the more aerodynamic shape of Pan also gave him more advantages because of less water resistance
@@adonisio1 true I agree
@@naturelover5781 that would mean there's a very little chance that chalmers could catch up with Pan
@@adonisio1 yes , maybe not just Chalmers but any top free style swimmers as well , I mean because of Pan’s unique swimming technique , most swimmers have their own individual techniques that they have trained for years , unless they need to change and adapt theirs techniques as well , Pan’s technique not only make him swim fast but help decrease water resistance as well , no wonder Pan said he watched his weekday training vdo on weekend to fix his flaws
@@naturelover5781 I think it's not easy to adapt to Pan's techniques and mechanics. For one, look at how flat his entire body is in contrast to many others who bounce up and down the water. Chalmers by comparison looks so rough and choppy - kind of ugly. If not for his backend stamina, he wouldn't have a chance.
How about Pan's joints that may set him apart? Not everyone can be that flexible.
And yeah, habits can be hard to break, especially when they've been ingrained by years of training.
If I think the ones who can possibly match Pan, it's not the ones already established but the young rising stars - even his Chinese teammates.
Could you do an analysis on the purple faces of the US team?
anyone can analyzed the living shit out of the technical aspects of the heat. But every athlete is different. The bottom line, Pan's peers lit a fire under his ass, by discrediting the Chinese competitors as a whole, looked down upon them. Never under estimate the power of pure competition fueled by adrenaline.
Brilliant analysis with in-depth coverage on virtually all the details of his technique. I might posit your analysis has been the best so far (though there is a swimming coach who has provided great analysis, as well, but yours captures more slow motion action and still shots that showcase Pan's swimming prowess and I might say, "artistry"). At the 4:25 mark, we can clearly see how Pan lies on top of the water while the other swimmers next to him, even their upper torso is submerged.
With that said, the graphics tools on the margin were distracting. Could you have disabled the tool?
Anyhow, thanks for such a comprehensive breakdown of a swim of an astonishing world record that even non-swimmers can grasp.
Thank you for your kind comment & taking your time to comment in such detail, I greatly appreciate the feedback and will consider moving forward ❤️
@@Lseperformance Thank you for your open reception.
For the moving forward, have you considered analyzing the 4x100m medley anchor leg of Pan's? Though 45.92 cannot be considered for official world record, in theory, it's Pan's fastest swim, even adding an additional reaction time of 0.40 (from his typical flat start of 0.62 to flying start of that race of 0.20); it would be 46.32.
His swimming technique won't be different, but strategy (other than motivation in chasing down the lead and helping his team win) had to be in play. I came across an interview where he explained his training in chasing down swimmers (but usually with long-distance swimmers so they have a head start). In relays, oftentimes, drafting off the lead swimmer is taken advantage of.
He has mentioned that in the 100m free, he didn't have to deal with the waves as he was so far ahead of the field. But he had been hit with the waves in the Paris pool for other races (prelims) and he had to regroup.
Or maybe there's only so much slicing and dicing of Pan for now. We'll have to wait for the Singapore world championship or the upcoming short-course world championship where he has a stated goal of beating Kyle Chalmer's world record.
Pan is 1.9 metres tall which helps (Chinese are growing taller and bigger now), however he has a style that emphasises on technique and efficiency instead of brute power and length like Chalmers and Agnel which has been the "secret" of western swimming since Michael Goss (2 metre tall with a wingspan of 2.13 metres).
@@mrhdebater1607 Hey, I remember you from that other thread with our arguing with a certain someone. I haven't replied to the latest, but I do have a draft waiting in the wings. And I have more comments to add.
He's qi is on high level.
Pan has a lower arm recovery because initially he was a 1500m swimmer.
Very interesting 🧐🙏🏼
Love the details🤙
It’s insane to think he broke it by .4 I wonder what’s next 😅
He has done that twice already. First time when he broke his personal best 47.22 to 46.80 for a new world record just 6 months ago. So at that pace he will break his own WR again at 46.00 flat before the end of the year ? …
It's true is on black hardly raise his head only the breath all his body straight online and elbows never too high outstanding swimmers it's only the beginning in China . Many potentials still not covered in all sports just the beginning for Physical Education I saw that when I was there
But he did 45 sec in relay,so if he improves his dive he can do it
Agreed
@Lseperformance good luck in competition
why don't people count that? they never talk about the relay
@@goodbad-boy what do you mean
i mean when people talk about his fastest time, they only talk about his 100m time. they rarely talk about his relay race time where he was even faster
There’s me going 45 for a 50 😢
You are funny.
Still faster than me
I can’t even finish a 50 😢
Chalmers should go down in history not as a silver medalist but as a sore loser. This coming from an Australian
And now hosting a pity party with his beating a dead horse about the Chinese fans, who could not care less about him after the Olympics. Did Leon Marchand make a stink about it? I'm sure he got it much worse than Chalmers, as the netizens saw that video of his brushing off Wang Shun's coach. Clear evidence. And Leon didn't make any excuses either. He apologized and presented a peace offering. All forgiven, such that even Eileen Gu was seen canoodling with him for at least one day while clubbing (though the Chinese fans weren't necessarily cool with her cavorting with the "enemy").
❤❤❤
That's mean one day someone can make it at 46 or 45 second.
if all these swimmers follow his style, then all of these swimmers will break the world record soon
Big IF. I don't think it's that simple of any swimmer - even these elite swimmers can so easily pick up and adopt Pan's style and technique. Too many are riding up and down through the water. And they may have a hard time maintaining that flat back with minimal hip and shoulder rotations that Pan has. They think it's all in his kick, so if only they just kick harder ... BAM! Pan redux. Nah, I think it's more than that.
The way everybody is trying to analyse and copy the shit out of Pan Zhanle's swimming style then incorporate that into their performance-enhanced programs in the west.
That would be a mark of respect and totally legit.
Better than talking drugs nonsense.....
@@mrhdebater1607 you do realize that it’s the primarily Eastern teams that had multiple systemic doping systems right? Obviously many Western athletes have doped, but they’re usually caught and it’s never been a team sponsored affair.
We have a maneki neko on the right hand corner
Joking apart this gentleman’s analysis is very good indeed. Full credit. I shall subscribe to this channel.
I actually learnt something. Normally on the turn I have one hand by my the side of my butt , pull the other hand in the water chin into the chest and tumble. He kind of one hand well ahead of his head the other by his eye line and pushed both towards his chest. Both feet touching the wall toes pointing to the ceiling. I was wrong all these years.
I decided to save this video to my favorite so I could watch over again and again.
In the 1980s coaches told us to pull the water so that the hand touches the chest. This went out of the window soon after. However I noticed at 6:30 min Pans left hand is doing exactly that. The right hand has that butterfly movement as you indicated. During butterfly training swimmers do one handed butterfly with fly kicks. Could he be doing an immediate right hand left hand right hand ….. butterfly with freestyle kicks? Theoretically that would lift him above the water. Can an experienced freestyler switch styles. It takes a lot of energy. May not be possible for 400 or 800 Meters. Appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.
I did think how he could possibly count his dolphin kick when Pan had already swum past the guys before they got to the wall and flipped on their turn. Unfortunately, NBC/Olympics has not released a fully underwater coverage of this swim when one has been released for the women's medley relay race.
Good catch!
Despite the wrong footage (which the 4x100m medley relay does have underwater video of Pan off the turn), LSE might have counted accurately anyway, as Pan pointed out his underwater leg was only 3 from his normal 4.
you missed the most important factor: his arms+hands' underwater speed. Pan indeed distanced the field by 3/4 of a body length in the last ten meters of the relay and did so with his upper-body pull only.. Nothing to see here huh?! Or was it his turn 40 meter before? Or he threw a tantrum while kicking most wildly in those last 10 meters? Only the eternal barbara krause could ridicule opponents like that over the last ten meters and it wasn't her toes. Pan's hand+arm are indeed much faster under water and slower out of the water. TAZ chalmers' arm is faster out of the water but that's useless. Pan's hand seems to generate more 'cavitation' though, which sabotages his water grab, but one needs better resolution. ua-cam.com/users/shortsu-JPdgNJTU0 .
❤❤ ❤❤ ppl Dont’ realize --MainLand Chinese = Tall, North American Chinese 3”-5” Shorter average.
So ppl can NOT undersand why Chinese = Good in sports! 🎉
2024 --19 yr old Gen Z. Beijing -20 million ppl. Male Avearage 🎉5’10” , 178cm, Female Average 5’7” 170cm.
In North America, Chinese avearge 5’7, female 5’2”😮😮😮 When I Graduated High School In china 🇨🇳 came to Canada (4th largest city in North America), those Mega weekly Asian Clubbing 500-1000(new year) Asians, or Asian house p arties. Always felt like Shrunken down to Elementary school. 😊😮😮😮😮😮. It was like Immediate Hight DROP from HIgh school to Grade 3 when I went from High school to Univeristy in Toronto!!!!!!!! The South East Asians would hit on me in school sprots center (like more of harasement) , n they were like 5’1 5’3, 5’4” 5’7” n Beefing UP . I was so confused n later Found out they were - average , n Tall in their community. 😮 for their hight.
No joke, my male cousins all like 5’9-6’2. Lol ironically my cousin who’s 510” his Dad’s 6’2. My female cousins husbands all like 5’10-6’1”. Now my other nephews r like 6’2 6’3” n they ware like 16 yr old. N my niece is 5’8”. N she’s 17. Lol.
IF u go to New York or Toronto, Vancourver, near those Univeristies, there a LOT of Foreign Chinese student. U will often see 6’3 6’4 Chinese guy with 5’8” 5’9 chinese gf. Lol 😂 in grocery store or restaurants. Then if they have parents u see like the MEGA 5’9”-5’11” MOM once a while with 5’10” daughter(very chinese girly outfit) lol its quite amusing lol.
North American Chinese 200 (already from uttter Southern Boarder ) as Shortest Chiense, then Hongkong are also shortest chinese. In USA , Canada, used to BAN--Chinese women enter USA. So they all Married someone south East Asia. Like how south American Latin are much stockier than actual Spanish Portuguese people in Europe. 😊
Pan is from Zhejiang Province, China, which is one of the richest regions in China. The young generation of parents there are very happy to let their children take swimming training. So the swimming coaches there can select professional swimmers from many children. One of the public criteria is that the combined height of the parents is greater than 11 feet 6 inches.
@ Zhejiang / Jiangsu province have the best looking ppl ! :)
@ makes sense he looked like Jiang Zhe area .
mental
At this level of competition, “not who swims the fastest, but who slows down the least”!
Wouldn’t this statement mean slenderness is at an advantage??? Slender Asians?
How about buoyancy (though that implies fat would be an advantage, no)? The reason the supersuit (full body) helped the swimmers 2009 and before was it made the swimmers buoyant due to the neoprene material.
Pan himself said something to the effect....who's seen muscular fish 😂😂❤❤....I think maybe this came from his coach
Buoyancy? Meaning bigger shoulder/chest vs slender shoulder/chest? I’d take the slender shoulders and chests.
Super-suit advantage was at its slickness, less frictions - not slowing down.
I call 44 sec for team steroids asthma purple faces 😈😈
Very poor analysis. Actually Pan had the fastest reaction time out of the blocks of the contenders. Nothing about stroke frequency and so on... And beginning the analysis with what his coach must improve at him is just ridiculous!
@@valipiros6423 thank you for your feedback,
I did not mention anything about his reaction time, I was referring to his power of the block,entry, dolphin kick etc.
You can clearly see he is behind to the 15m mark. Not taking anything away from him, but there is room for improvement for everyone.
@@Lseperformance I believe there are precise swimming data that might support your claim, as even on the initial entry in the pool, I heard the analysts point out Grousset as being out in front. The Olympics has issued out very technical data, such as strokes (which Pan had the lowest at just 65, while Chalmers was at 67 and Povici at 69), distance per stroke, time at specific distance mark, etc.
At the very least, the reaction time is an area that Pan can shave hundreds of seconds to be faster. His world record swim had a reaction of 0.62. I don't know what's the fastest, but I have seen 0.60 is not uncommon.
Pan and his coaching team do analyze every single one of those details: underwater, on top of the water, etc.
Personally, I don’t believe the vast majority of WRs in all sports over the last couple of decades have been achieved without drugs. The human race has not evolved that much over the eons!
It’s not about evolution of human bodies, it’s about evolution of training programs, nutritions, and perfecting nuances from all aspects of one sport.
It’s actually about techniques, not human evolution. The precise movements little by little, assisted by technology.
Do you also believe Ilia Malinin’s quad axel, previously thought humanly impossible, was also done via drugs?
only anglo sxon need drug
🤦 evolution, really?!?
Training techniques, swimming techniques, improved tools to analyse aerodynamics and performance.
Lastly, funding. For all we know the fastest swimmers over the decades were born in third world countries but unless the opportunity arises there's no way for them to get to the stage.
So, China getting richer, India getting richer, this is great for world sporting records simply due to much greater participation.
Human beings were created by God not evolved!!!!
Yellow peril!!!
