2011

Romuald Lepers1, Beat Knechtle2,3, Patrizia Knechtle2, Thomas Rosemann2 1INSERM U887, Faculty of Sport Sciences, University of Burgundy, Dijon, France; 2Institute of General Practice and Health Services Research, University of Zurich, Switzerland; 3Gesundheitszentrum St Gallen, St Gallen, Switzerland Abstract: Despite increased interest in ultra-endurance events, little research has examined ultra-triathlon performance. The aims of this study were: (i) to compare swimming, cycling, running, and overall performances in three ultra-distance triathlons, double Ironman distance triathlon (2IMT) (7.6 km swimming, 360 km cycling, and 84.4 km running), triple Ironman distance triathlon (3IMT) (11.…

Parantamisen varaa ilman et tarvii tehhä mittään : diskurssianalyysi triathlonharrastajien suunterveyskäyttäytymisen muutospuheesta

2017

Suunterveys on tärkeä osa yleistä terveyttä ja elämänlaatua. Suuren suosion saavuttanut kestävyyslaji triathlon tuo harrastajilleen vaativien harjoitus- ja ravitsemusmenetelmien lisäksi mukanaan haasteet suunterveydelle. Triathlonistien on todettu asettavan itsensä usein tiedostamattaan riskiin suunterveyden näkökulmasta, ja heillä on todettu olevan parantamisen varaa suunterveystottumuksissaan. Terveyskäyttäytymisen muutos on kuitenkin haastava prosessi. Muutospuhetta pidetään yhtenä merkkinä muutosprosessin käynnistymisestä. Tämän gradututkielman tarkoituksena oli tutkia ja tuottaa uutta tietoa siitä, miten triathlonharrastajat puhuvat suunterveyskäyttäytymisen muutoksesta lajin suunterve…

The age-related performance decline in ultraendurance mountain biking

2013

Haupt, Samuel | Knechtle, Beat | Knechtle, Patrizia | Ruest, Christoph Alexander | Rosemann, Thomas | Lepers, Romuald; International audience; ''The age-related changes in ultraendurance performance have been previously examined for running and triathlon but not mountain biking. The aims of this study were (i) to describe the performance trends and (ii) to analyze the age-related performance decline in ultraendurance mountain biking in a 120-km ultraendurance mountain bike race the Swiss Bike Masters from 1995 to 2009 in 9,325 male athletes. The mean (+/- SD) race time decreased from 590 +/- 80 min to 529 +/- 88 min for overall finishers and from 415 +/- 8 min to 359 +/- 16 min for the top …

The present study analyzed triathletes participating in Double Iron ultratriathlons to determine the origin of the fastest Double Iron ultratriathletes, focusing on European countries.Methods: Participation and perf…

Triathlonin lajianalyysi ja valmennuksen ohjelmointi: perusmatka

2016

Johdanto. Triathlon on laji, jossa suoritetaan uinti, pyöräily ja juoksu peräkkäin. Triathlonissa kilpaillaan eripituisilla matkoilla. Tässä lajianalyysissä keskitytään perusmatkan triathloniin (1500 m uinti, 40 km pyöräily ja 10 km juoksu). Triathlon on kova kestävyyslaji, jossa vaaditaan kolmen eri lajin osaamista ja niiden optimaalista yhdistämistä yhdeksi suoritukseksi. Fysiologia. Kestävyyssuorituskyky on tärkeää triathlonissa. Kestävyyssuorituskykyyn vaikuttavia tekijöitä ovat maksimaalinen hapenottokyky, kynnysnopeudet, taloudellisuus ja hermo-lihasjärjestelmän suorituskyky. Taloudellisuus on triathlon suorituskyvyn kannalta erityisen tärkeä ja jokaisessa lajissa taloudellisuus pitää…

A comparison of performance of Deca Iron and Triple Deca Iron ultra-triathletes

2014

This study intended to compare the performance of ultra-triathletes competing in a Deca Iron ultra-triathlon (i.e. 10 times 3.8 km swimming, 180 km cycling, and 42.2 km running) with the performance of athletes competing in a Triple Deca Iron ultra-triathlon (i.e. 30 times 3.8 km swimming, 180 km cycling, and 42.2 km running). Split and overall race times of six male finishers in a Deca Iron ultra-triathlon and eight male finishers in a Triple Deca Iron ultra-triathlon were analysed using multiple t-tests, linear and non-linear regression analyses, and analysis of variance. Among the 19 starters (i.e. 17 men and two women) in the Deca Iron ultra-triathlon, six men (i.e. 35.3% of all starter…

Evolution of electromyographic signal, running economy, and perceived exertion during different prolonged exercises

2000

International audience; The purpose of this study was to compare the electromyographic (EMG) signal of the vastus lateralis muscle obtained during a run section of a triathlon and at the end of a prolonged run performed at the same running velocity. Seven subjects were studied on three occasions: a 2 h 15 min triathlon (30 min swimming, 60 min cycling, and 45 min treadmill running at 75% of the maximal aerobic speed), a 2 h 15 min run, where the last 45 min (Prolonged Run, PR) were run at the same speed as the Triathlon Run (TR) on a motorized treadmill, and a 45 min Isolated Run (IR) performed at the same TR and PR velocity. The three experimental trials were randomised. Oxygen uptake (VO …

Triatleters indre monolog : en studie som tar for seg hva som kjennetegner triatleters indre monolog under en konkurransesetting og om det er forskje…

2016

Masteroppgave i idrettsvitenskap - Universitetet i Agder 2016 The aim of this study is to survey the use of self-talk at triathletes. Are there any differences between the use of self-talk at triathletes with a high level of performance, compared to triathletes at a lower level of performance? There were a total of 20 participants in the study, where ten of them were athletes from the Norwegian national team of triathlon. These ten represented the participants of a high level of performance. The remaining ten, were club triathletes who represented the group with a lower level of performance. There were completed both frekvency, correlation- and regressionanalyses, and the result can be unde…
