Description
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of stage duration (Long-stage–LS: 3-min, Short-stage–SS: 1-min) on maximal and submaximal aerobic physiological variables during a simulated skating test performed on a slide board. Ten well-trained male speed skaters performed two maximal incremental tests on slide board until voluntary exhaustion. The second ventilatory threshold (VT2) was determined by the ventilatory equivalent method. All participants reached the criteria for maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) attainment in both protocols. Maximal cadence (CADmax), VO2 at VT2 and cadence at VT2 (CADVT2) were significantly higher during SS protocol, but maximal heart rate was...
