Skiing efficiency versus performance in double-poling ergometry.
This study is on how leg utilisation may affect skiing efficiency and performance in double-poling ergometry. Three experiments were conducted, each with a different style of the double-poling technique: traditional with small knee range-of-motion and fixed heels (TRAD); modern with large knee range-of-motion and fixed heels (MOD1) and modern with large knee range-of-motion and free heels (MOD2...
متن کاملThe effects of prior high intensity double poling on subsequent diagonal stride skiing characteristics
PURPOSE To investigate the influence of prior high intensity double poling (DP) on physiological and biomechanical responses during subsequent diagonal stride (DIA). METHODS Eight well-trained male cross-country skiers (age 22 ± 3 yr; VO2max 69 ± 3 ml · kg(-1) · min(-1)) roller-skied on a treadmill sequentially for 3 min at 90% DIA VO2max (DIA1), 3 min at 90% DP VO2peak and 3 min at 90% DIA V...
متن کاملDeterminations of performance and mechanical efficiency in nordic skiing.
Determinants of performance and mechanical efficiency of effort have been made on a group of ten male nordic skiers, all participants in the University of Toronto ski-team. The oxygen intake at the maximum attainable speed of skiing on a level course averaged 89.6 percent of the maximum oxygen intake observed during uphill treadmill running; the latter (average 63.9 ml.kg-1 min-1) may be compar...
متن کاملPitfalls of efficiency determination in cycling ergometry.
TO THE EDITOR: Muscular efficiency is a typical topic of traditional exercise physiology, but the results of seemingly simple approaches may be misinterpreted. There is a variety of pitfalls that have to be avoided during efficiency determination (e.g., Ref. 1). This is rather simple during cycling, because it is an uncomplicated movement mastered by nearly everybody; furthermore the amount of ...
متن کاملCaffeine increases performance in cross-country double-poling time trial exercise.
PURPOSE Caffeine (CAF) improves performance in both short- and long-duration running and cycling where performance relies on power output and endurance capacity of leg muscles. No studies have so far tested the effects of CAF while using the double-poling (DP) technique in cross-country skiing. When using the DP technique, arm muscles provide the speed-generating force and therefore play an imp...
