  • Race Analyses Among Winter Olympic Sliding Sports: a Cross-Sectional Study of the 2018/2019 World Cups and World Championships
    Original Article Race analyses among Winter Olympic sliding sports: A cross-sectional study of the 2018/2019 World Cups and World Championships MARKUS WILLIAMS 1 Department of Sports Performance, United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee, Lake Placid, United States of America ABSTRACT Studies about the three Olympic sliding sports are sparse, little is known other than factors related to start performance. Therefore, this study aimed to add to the current literature by analysing the race characteristics of the nine different events. A non-experimental retrospective method was applied to analyse all races of the 2018/2019 season. A total of 3371 race trials sampled across the sports of bobsleigh (n = 1105), luge (n = 1401) and skeleton (n = 865). Split rankings were correlated to finish rankings using Pearson product-moment correlation to analyse the relationship of sectional rankings and race outcome throughout the race. The results exhibited sequentially increasing correlation coefficients in all events. Yet, there were distinctive characteristics differentiating the sports. Bobsleigh illustrated correlations coefficients that at a minimum were very large (r ≥ .71) among all split rankings. Luge and skeleton depicted lower correlations for split 1 (r = .30 – .68) and thereafter substantially increasing as the race progressed. Thus, sliding performance can potentially have a greater impact in luge and skeleton than in bobsleigh. The differentiating race characteristics show the need for different training methods. Keywords: Olympic sports; Bobsleigh; Luge; Skeleton; Performance analysis. Cite this article as: Williams, M. (2021). Race analyses among Winter Olympic sliding sports: A cross-sectional study of the 2018/2019 World Cups and World Championships.

  • Physiological Contributions to Successful Downhill Mountain Bike Performance
    PHYSIOLOGICAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO SUCCESSFUL DOWNHILL MOUNTAIN BIKE PERFORMANCE EDINBURGH NAPIER UNIVERSITY, MSC BY RESEARCH SUZANNE L. HADDEN A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUEST OF EDINBURGH NAPIER UNIVERSITY, FOR THE AWARD OF MASTER OF SCIENCE BY RESEARCH. JUNE 2011 ABSTRACT Purpose: To, one, investigate the anatomical and physiological attributes of Downhill mountain bike athletes and, two, to determine the influence of these inherent physiological attributes on Downhill race performance. Methods: The study consisted of two testing components; laboratory- and field-based testing. Laboratory study: An anthropometric profile was determined from seven trained and competitive DH athletes (age 21 ± 5 years). Peak power output and time to peak power were determined by six, 6-second maximal sprints, performed on an SRM stationary ergometer. Cadence was restricted during five sprints (60, 80, 100, 120 and 140 rpm) to determine optimal cadence for achieving peak power. Field study: Twelve trained and competitive DH athletes (age 20 ± 5 years) performed two timed runs of a National Championship DH course. Heart rate was recorded and two GPS units (attached to the bicycle and helmet) recorded speed (kmhr-1), distance (m), time (seconds) and impacts (g). Results: Laboratory study: DH cyclists have predominantly mesomorphic somatotypes (mean somatotype values, 2.1,4.7,3.0) with a mean sum of 8 skinfolds, 68.7 ± 19.8 mm. Sprint testing revealed peak power output (23.36 ± 2.12 Wkg-1) was achieved at restricted cadence of 110 rpm and time to peak power output was 1.5 ± 0.9 seconds. Field study: DH race run time was 178.57 ± 12.10 seconds.
