Invited review für Asian Journal of Sports Medicine

Anthropometric and training characteristics in ultra-triathletes and ultra-marathoners The editor of Asian Journal of Sports Medicine wants me to write a ‘Invited Review’ on the aspects of training and physique in extreme foreigners such as runners and triathlets.It should be summarized in the current state of knowledge on this topic. We are currently on the analysis of the relationship between nationality and performance in extreme duration competitions.It is generally known that the Kenyans dominate the running tracks to the marathon.What comes after the marathon is not investigated.

Qualification for US championships

USA Triathlon Age Group National Championships At Triple Iron USA 2012 I came to rank 2 with my 48 years.

I could be the father of the winner. Since I have understood in the first 10 percent of my age category, I qualified for the US Championships over the Olympic distance in the Age Groups (Olympic-Distance Race at the 2013 USA Triathlon Age Group National Championships). This will take place on August 10, 2013 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. Details below https://www.teamusa.org/usa-triathlon/events/national-championships

Differences between men and women at the Ironman Hawaii

Sex difference in race performance and age of peak performance in the Ironman Triathlon World Championship from 1983 to 2012 Between 1983 and 2012, the top ten finishers at the ‘Ironman Hawaii’ improved their times, with only the men in swimming were better. For the total time, the difference between men and women of 15.2% (1983) decreased to 11.3% (2012).In swimming and cycling, the difference remained unchanged at 12.5% over every year.When running, the difference of 13.5% (1983) took 7.3% (2012). If you take the most fastest per discipline, then the time in the floats remained unchanged while the times in cycling and running became faster.The difference between men and women was 8% in swimming, 12.7% in cycling and 15.2% in progress.

Movement of upper body and basins at cyclists

Skilled movements of the torso and pelvis are vital to cycling performance There is something to be said for the elegance and quality of movement on the bicycle, features that ought to be appreciated in particular from elite level cyclists.

Focus your sights on the movement of the torso and pelvis of elite athletes and you will note a very skilled Sidebend Hip Hike (SBHH) sequence. Fabian Cancellara, performs these movements to perfection, an important reason why he excels at time trials. The same applies to Triathletes who perform at a high level. Rather than keeping the torso and pelvis perfectly still for the sake of physiological economy; the SBHH may improve efficiency by distributing the effort over a greater number of kinetic links and stabilize to reaction forces.

Does the muscle mass influence the mileage?

Does Muscle Mass Affect Running Times in Male Long-distance Master Runners? It is generally assuming that older runners such as master runners (over 35 years old) the age-related degradation of muscle mass adversely affects the endurance performance.At half-marathon, marathon and 100km runners, we examined the relationship between muscle mass, body fat and competition time. If the influence of muscle mass, body fat and training were examined for maturities in a multivariance analysis, the body fat for half marathon, marathon and 100 km was a crucial variable. For half marathon and marathon, the running speed in training was crucial, for 100 km the weekly running kilometers.

The Marathon des SABLES in numbers from 2003-2012

Participation and performance trends in multistage ultramarathons–the ‘Marathon des Sables’ 2003- 2012

We examined the development of the participants and their performance at the Marathon des SABLES ‘between 2003 and 2012. Of the 7,275 finishers were 12.9% women.Men ran the route much faster than the women.The difference between the sexes with 31.7 ± 2.0% was very high compared to previous results. The men’s race has been dominated by runners in the region in recent years with 9 victories by Moroccans and 1 victory through a Jordanian.For the women, on the other hand, Europeans dominated with 5 victories through French, 2 victories through Luxembourgers and 1 victory through a Spaniard. Only 2 Moroccans could prevail. Show details can be found at www.extremephysiolmed.com/content/1/1/13/abstract

What distinguishes marathon runners of ultramarathon runner?

Ultramarathon runners: nature or nurture? An overview of existing literature for ultramarathon runners shows that these runners are in 80% men, typically 45 years old, achieve their best mileage between 30 and 49 years in men and 30 to 54 years in women. It can be assumed that the ultramarathon runners get over the marathon on long distances, because ultra-raptures have a significantly higher number of completed marathons than marathon runners.However, marathon runners have a much faster personal best time in the marathon as a UltraLauer.

Comparison between men and women at freistic swimming

Women achieve peak freestyle swim speed at earlier ages than men We examined the age of the best swimming performance for freestyle. For men, for 100 m and 200 m, the fastest times were 22-23 years, for 400 meters and 800 m with 24-24 years and for 50 m and 1500 m at 26-27 years.

For women, the best times were achieved with 20-21 years for all routes except 800 m, there was the age of the best performance at 26-27 years. With increasing route length, the difference between the sexes decreased with 13.1 ± 1.3% for 50 m, 13.2 ± 0.9% for 100 m, 10.8 ± 0.9% for 200 m, 7.9 ± 1.3% for 400 m and 4.2 ± 2.0% for 800m. For 1500 m, however, the difference increased again to 6.4 ± 2.3%.
