El ritmo de competición (RC) es sumamente importante para establecer un óptimo pacing behaviour (PB) y así alcanzar un mayor rendimiento en la carrera a pie. Por lo tanto, el objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar posibles diferencias en el PB desarrollado en base al grupo etario y sexo durante la Maratón de Berlín. 43.970 atletas formaron pa...
Article
HighlightsPrior to participation in meet marathon races such as Berlin marathon, elite runners should select the group that they will join during the race according to their current performance level as a preassigned pace set by a pacemaker will be adopted.Athletes could follow an even rather than positive pacing behaviour which will allow them to...

The purpose of this study was to analyze the validity and the reliability of the intensity ranges, number of actions and changes of direction measured by a commercial inertial measurement unit. Eleven elite youth futsal players performed a circuit with different type of displacements as sprinting, running at low-medium intensity, standing up and ch...

The purposes of this study were 1) to analyse the different pacing behaviours based on athlete's performance and 2) to determine whether significant differences in each race split and the runner's performance implied different race profiles. A total of 2295 runners, which took part in Berlin’s marathon (2017), met the inclusion criteria. 4 differen...

Marathon (42.2 km) is one of the endurance tests with greater participation worldwide (WMM, 2018) and the competitive strategy is one of the capital variables in achieving the goal of the athlete. Therefore, it is necessary to take into account the different competitive profiles (CP) that may arise: negative, positive and uniform. The objective of...

The polarized training intensity distribution model (PTM) has demonstrated to achieve larger improvements than lactate threshold model (LTM) in elite and well-trained endurance athletes. However, there is a lack of knowledge about the effectivity of PTM with novice recreational runners. This research aimed to compare the impact of LTM vs PTM on a n...

Purpose: To compare the absolute and relative training load of the Marathon (42k) and the Ironman (IM) training in recreational trained athletes. Methods: Fifteen Marathoners and Fifteen Triathletes participated in the study. Their performance level was the same relative to the sex's absolute winner at the race. No differences were presented neithe...
