Endurance Runners

Purpose:To examine the training and concomitant changes in laboratory- and field-test performance of highly trained endurance runners.Methods:Fourteen highly trained male endurance runners (mean ± SD maximal oxygen uptake [VO2max] 69.8 ± 6.3 mL · kg−1 · min−1) completed this 1-y training study commencing in April. During the study the runners undertook 5 laboratory tests of VO2max, lactate threshold (LT), and running economy and 9 field tests to determine critical speed (CS) and the modeled maximum distance performed above CS (D′). The data for different periods of the year were compared using repeated-measures ANOVA. The influence of training on laboratory- and field-test changes was analyzed by multiple regression.Results:Total training distance varied during the year and was lower in May–July (333 ± 206 km, P = .01) and July–August (339 ± 206 km, P = .02) than in the subsequent January–February period (474 ± 188 km). VO2max increased from the April baseline (4.7 ± 0.4 L/min) in October and January periods (5.0 ± 0.4 L/min, P ≤ .01). Other laboratory measures did not change. Runners’ CS was lowest in August (4.90 ± 0.32 m/s) and highest in February (4.99 ± 0.30 m/s, P = .02). Total training distance and the percentage of training time spent above LT velocity explained 33% of the variation in CS.Conclusion:Highly trained endurance runners achieve small but significant changes in VO2max and CS in a year. Increases in training distance and time above LT velocity were related to increases in CS.

Pavement Structures

A laboratory study performed to evaluate pavement bearing characteristics by the Florida limerock bearing ratio (LBR) test is presented. The LBR is a modification of the California bearing ratio test and has been widely used in Florida for the design of pavement structures. The LBR evaluation is part of a larger research project studying existing pavement conditions in Florida. A field experimental program was recently conducted on 20 selected pavement sites across the state of Florida. The LBR test was performed on pavement soils obtained from the field test sites. The LBR test results were analyzed and compared with the field test results. The AASHO Road Test layer coefficient values (a2) and soil support values (SSVs), which have become classic reference values over more than two decades, were evaluated by using the LBR and field test results. It was concluded that the LBR values could be used to estimate the SSVs for the design of flexible pavements in Florida. The correlation relationships between the LBR values and SSVs were evaluated to better characterize the pavement structures in Florida.

And Performance

A bioenergetical analysis of manoeuvrability and agility performance for wheelchair players is inexistent. It was aimed at comparing the physiological responses and performance obtained from the octagon multistage field test (MFT) and the modified condition in “8 form” (MFT-8). Sixteen trained wheelchair basketball players performed both tests in randomized condition. The levels performed (end-test score), peak values of oxygen uptake(VO2peak), minute ventilation(VEpeak), heart rate(HRpeak), peak and relative blood lactate (Δ[Lact−] = peak – rest values), and the perceived rating exertion (RPE) were measured. MFT-8 induced higherVO2peakandVEpeakvalues compared to MFT (VO2peak: 2.5 ± 0.6 versus 2.3 ± 0.6 L·min−1andVEpeak: 96.3 ± 29.1 versus 86.6 ± 23.4 L·min−1;P<0.05) with no difference in other parameters. Significant relations betweenVEpeakand end-test score were correlated for both field tests(P<0.05). At exhaustion, MFT attained incompletelyVO2peakandVEpeak. Among experienced wheelchair players, MFT-8 had no effect on test performance but generates higher physiological responses than MFT. It could be explained by demands of wheelchair skills occurring in 8 form during the modified condition.
