BACKGROUND Endurance athletes are advised to optimize nutrition prior to races. Little is known about actual athletes' beliefs, knowledge and nutritional behaviour. We monitored nutritional behaviour of amateur ski-mountaineering athletes during 4 days prior to a major competition to compare it with official recommendations and with the athletes' beliefs. METHODS Participants to the two route...

BACKGROUND Hydration status is a controversial determinant of athletic performance. This relationship has not been examined with mountaineering performance. METHODS This was a prospective observational study of mountaineers who attempted to climb Denali in Alaska. Participants' urine specific gravity (SG), and ultrasound measurements of the inferior vena cava size and collapsibility index (IV...

This study is a part of the work which has been done in purpose of investi· gating the effects of a long term exposure to a lowered barometric pressure in the 1965-1966 Nagoya university scientific and mountaineering expedition to the Andes. Changes in breath holding time, Po, and Poo, of the expired air at the breaking point and alveolar Po, and Pco2, pulmonary ventilation and respiratory freq...

Real-Time Mobile 3D Topography System is a GIS (Geographic Information System) based on Client Server. In our daily life, this system could be useful in the traveling, mining, and etc,. In this paper, we developed a Real-Time Mobile 3D Topography System for embedded system. This system is consisted by a Server and a client. The client based on Intel Sitsang, can orientate the position through t...

In this work, we aim to provide a connection between energy consumption during hiking and its relation optimum logistic preparations in mountaineering-based tourism. Such is calculated based on data from track profiles heart rate of persons taking the track. It then used as input solve optimization problems term preparations. Here, demonstrate such actual condition Mount Sindoro, Central Java, ...
