This investigation was designed to analyze the time-trial (STT) in an international cross-country skiing sprint skating competition for (1) overall STT performance and relative contributions of time spent in different sections of terrain, (2) work rate and kinematics on uphill terrain, and (3) relationships to physiological and kinematic parameters while treadmill roller ski skating.
One week later, the subjects performed treadmill roller ski skating in the laboratory and were assessed for (1) gross efficiency (GE) in a submaximal test; (2) peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak), treadmill performance and kinematics in a ~5-min incremental test; and (3) peak treadmill speed (Vpeak) in a ~1-min incremental test.
The present study was designed to investigate (1) the contribution of uphill, flat, and downhill sections to overall sprint time-trial (STT) performance, (2) work rate and kinematics on uphill terrain, and (3) the relationships of these parameters to physiological and kinematic characteristics utilizing roller ski skating in the laboratory.
We know that Olympians are fantastic at burning calories, but now we know what they are actually eating before they run, ski, skate or curl those calories off.
Winter's weather excites children and enthuses them to make snow angels, sled down hills, and to learn to ski, skate, and snowboard.
Dog sledding, cross-country skiing, skating, snowmobiling and ice fishing are also available at the site.
Winter rates include breakfast and dinner, as well as such activities as skiing, skating, cross-country skiing and snowboarding.
A lifetime of skiing, skating, sailing, golf and ocean swimming made him a tireless ballroom dancing partner.
He loved the woods and mountains of Vermont, his neighborhood of Wooster Square, and his active life of hiking, skiing, skating, kayaking, dancing, traveling, and riding his bicycle.
As soon as those standards are published, Mr. Howman said, other international federations — like those that govern skiing, skating, track and field and biathlon — will begin passport programs.
It is built each winter on the grounds of the Station Touristique Duchesnay, a large resort with snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, skating, ice-fishing and dog sledding.
