WINTER SPORTS ACTIVITIES COURSE FOR FUTURE KINESIOLOGISTS: TRENDS AND CHALLENGES

Nordic Winter Sports, Biological Passport (ABP) and the Legal Challenges

Why do athletes blood dope? From a physiological point of view we need to consider which factors limit the endurance exercise capacity. During whole body endurance exercise, performance is limited by the amount of oxygen delivered to the working muscles. The oxygen delivered, is a function of the capacity of the heart to pump blood out into the systemic circulation (cardiac output) and the amou...
