Anticipatory pacing strategies during supramaximal exercise lasting longer than 30 s

Article Abstract:

Six Wingate anaerobic tests are performed on eight healthy males to determine if pacing strategies are adopted during supramaximal exercise bouts lasting longer than 30 seconds. Power output is found to be same in the 30 s duration trials but it is lower in 36-s deception trials compared to 36-s informed trials and reduction in fatigue indices (FI) is greatest in the 36-s deception trials indicating a presence of preprogrammed end-point.

The ACE gene and endurance performance during the South African Ironman Triathlons

Article Abstract:

A study is undertaken to determine whether the insertion variant and deletion variant polymorphism is associated with the performance of the fastest finishers of the South African Ironman Triathlons. The findings indicate a significantly higher frequency of the I allele in the fastest 100 South African finishers compared with the 166 South African-born control subjects.

Reduced eccentric loading of the knee with the Pose running method

Article Abstract:

A comparative study of biomechanical changes during natural heel-toe running with learned midfoot and Pose running is carried out. Results demonstrate, Pose running method to be associated with shorter stride lengths, smaller vertical oscillations of the sacrum and left heel marker as compared to midfoot or heel-toe running.
