This study aims to analyze the effect of body angle variations on propulsion force, drag coefficient, and freestyle swimming performance using a biomechanical approach. Movement efficiency in swimming plays a crucial role in improving athlete performance. This study employed a quantitative experimental design with university or club-level swimmers with at least three years of training experience as subjects. Subjects were selected through purposive sampling with the criteria of being healthy, familiar with freestyle techniques, and willing to follow the research procedures. The instruments used included 3D motion capture to record body angles and movement coordination, force sensors to measure propulsion force and drag coefficient, and a timekeeping system to calculate average speed. The body angle variations tested were 0°, 15°, and 30°, each with three replications. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics to describe the mean, standard deviation, and data distribution, and comparative statistics (ANOVA or paired t-test) to compare performance between angle variations. The results showed that a 15° body angle provided optimal performance, with increased average speed and propulsion efficiency compared to 0° and 30° body angles. These findings confirm that body angle regulation plays a crucial role in reducing water resistance and increasing propulsion. The study concluded that a 15° body angle is the ideal position for improving freestyle swimming performance. Further research is recommended to expand the number of subjects, explore variations in other swimming strokes, and integrate physiological data for more comprehensive results.

The purpose of this community service activity is to enhance the innovation and product visualization of the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME) Dapur 80 to increase consumer awareness and familiarity with its products. Through observations and interviews, several challenges were identified, including Dapur 80 lacked a consistent visual identity, used simple product packaging, had an unorganized menu, and did not have an appealing business location marker. To address these issues, the activity focused on designing and producing menu catalogs, product stickers, and a neon box—each playing a crucial role in enhancing product appeal. The results indicated successful implementation: catalogs were distributed to resellers, 100 stickers were printed and applied to product packaging, and one neon box was installed at the business location. An evaluation with the owner revealed satisfaction with the developed promotional media. Within just ten days of use, Dapur 80 recorded an increase of 11 new customers. However, the project was limited by its relatively short duration of one month, which constrained the measurement of long-term impacts. Despite this limitation, the community service activity contributed significantly to improving Dapur 80’s sales performance, demonstrating that enhanced product visualization can attract consumer attention, stimulate demand, and increase turnover.
