The present research aimed to analyse the effects of 12 weeks of paracanoe training on stroke length, stroke frequency, and stroke index. It is characterised by quantitative research and quasi-experimental design. The sample comprised 5 paracanoe athletes, aged between 28 and 43, of both sexes and living in the backlands of Pernambuco. Data collection was carried out in an artificial lake located in the city of Petrolina – PE, which occurred in two moments, pre and post-test, using a kayak (K1 paracanoagem) and rowing (Epic® and Jantex®) with an action camera (GoPro 7 Hero Black®) attached to the bow of the vessel. Subsequently, a telemetry program (Telemetry Overlay®) was used to extract data from the action video camera, and Kinovea® was used to analyze the video data. The variables of time (d=0.68), stroke length (d=0.51), stroke frequency (d=0.52) and stroke index (d=0.58) showed a moderate effect size when compared in the pre and post-test. The present study demonstrated that 12 weeks of training had a greater effect on performance in relation to the variables of paddling rate and race time in paracanoe with a 200-meter route.
