In this study we aimed to analyze downhill and uphill skills in a sample of young cross-country skier in order to compare them to each other to provide training recommendations accordingly and to make recommendations for an easy applicable performance diagnostic protocol in cross-country skiing for young sportsmen. Therefore, twelve cross-country skiers absolved two performance tests: an exhausting uphill course as well as the same course downhill. Course times, maximum and average heart rates, blood lactate concentration, BORG-Scale (6-20) were measured uphill respectively downhill. Interestingly a close relationship between body weight and downhill course time was detected (R2= 0.754) pointing out relevance of this parameter. Athletes now can position themselves within the sample as good uphill or downhill skier and analyzes allow cross-country skier to position himself as good beuphill done or with downhill a high-intensity skier. When training detected block? weaknesses in downhill skiing eccentric muscle activity could be specifically trained e.g. due some days with alpine skiing.

CLANCY, B.Sc., M.R.C.P. Department of Medicine, Royal Infirmary, University of Edinburgh ABSTRACT We have studied maximal oxygen uptake, maximal heart rate, maximal exercise ventilation and the ventilatory response to exercise in 24 male and 14 female Scottish athletes. The values for maximal oxygen uptake are similar to those reported in other international studies. In eight athletes repeat measurements of maximal oxygen uptake 7-1 1 months after the initial study showed no change from the initial values. The values for the ventilatory response to exercise in our athletes were normal. The relationship is discussed between maximal oxygen uptake and ventilatory responses to exercise, hypoxia and hypercapnia and it is suggested that these may be related to athletic event. INTRODUCTION legible recordings were not obtained for the entire minute a value for heart rate was calculated from more The few studies of maximal oxygen uptake (V02 max) than 15 consecutive complexes in the last minute of in British athletes (Pugh, 1970; Watson & Devenney, exercise.

We tested the hypothesis that VO2max can be elicited in both the sprint and marathon distances and that the fraction of time spent at VO2max is not significantly different between distances. Methods: Seventy-eight well-trained males (mean [SD] age: 32 [13]; weight: 73 [9] kg; height: 1.80 [0.8] m) performed the University of Montreal Track Test using a portable respiratory gas sampling system to measure a baseline VO2max. Each participant ran one or two different distances (100 m, 200 m, 800 m, 1500 m, 3000 m, 10 km or marathon) in which they are specialists. Results: VO2max was elicited and sustained in all distances tested. The time limit (Tlim) at VO2max on a relative scale of the total time (Tlim at VO2max%Ttot) during the sprint, middle-distance, and 1500 m was not significantly different (p > 0.05).

CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING: PREDICTION OF CROSS-COUNTRY SKI SEASON PERFORMANCE BASED ON A LINEAR REGRESSION MODEL OF LABORATORY ROLLER SKI CAPACITY AND VO2MAX TEST Naef, N., Steiner, T., Müller, B., Wehrlin, J.P. Institution: Swiss Federal Institute of Sports, Magglingen, Switzerland Introduction: Cross-country (XC) ski-specific testing is used to support elite athletes regarding their training control as well as to predict performance of competitive ski season (Alsobrook & Heil, 2009, Staib et al., 2000). The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the results of two different laboratory preseason roller ski tests and the XC ski performance of the following season as well as its predictability with a linear regression model. Methods In October 2008, 14 male XC skiers of the Swiss National U20 (n=5), U23 (n=2) and Elite (n=7) Distance Ski Team completed two laboratory roller ski tests on a large motor-driven treadmill. Athletes performed a maximal diagonal stride test to measure VO2max. 24 hours later they carried out a maximal double poling capacity test with self selected speed during three stages of eight minutes (5 min at 3° inclination and 3 min at 5° inclination) to establish maximal possible distance.
