(Department of Physical Education,Jinan University,Guangzhou 510632,China) Abstract: Basing his research subjects on 30 college students as swimming beginners who took an elective swim-ming course at the Jinan University, the author randomly divided them into 3 groups, for which the ordinary swim-ming teaching method, swimming teaching method with stationary rhythmic respiration and swimming teaching method with mobile rhythmic respiration were adopted respectively; each group contains 10 students, who took the class once a week, for totally 9 weeks; the swimming capacity test indexes were air changing times and swimming distance. The test results indicated that in terms of helping swimming beginners in air changing times and swim-ming distance, the swimming teaching method with mobile rhythmic respiration had the most significant effect, the swimming teaching method with stationary rhythmic respiration had the second significant effect, while the ordinary teaching method had the poorest effect. Therefore, the swimming teaching method with mobile rhythmic respiration can effectively enhance the swimming capacity of ordinary college students as swimming beginners.
