CLINICAL TRIAL
COMPARATIVE STUDY
JOURNAL ARTICLE
Rowing performance and estimated training load.
International Journal of Sports Medicine 2005 June
We related the rowing performance and the associated physiological parameters to the training load as estimated by a questionnaire addressing the mean habitual weekly energy expenditure (MHWEE) of twenty-one international and national level oarsmen. The questionnaire also addressed the energy expenditure during training (EET) sessions classified as low- (EE1), moderate- (EE2), and high-intensity (EE3). To evaluate the physiological capability of the oarsmen, they performed incremental exercise to determine their maximal oxygen uptake (V.O(2max)) and the V.O(2) relative to V.O(2max) corresponding to the 4 mmol.l(-1) blood lactate concentration (V.O(2)4 %). The mean work rate sustained during a 2000-m all-out event on a rowing ergometer was considered as the rowing performance. On average, the rowers spent 16.4 +/- 1.0 h.wk(-1) in training with 56 +/- 3 % of the time spent on the water. EET represented 43.5 +/- 1.7 % of MHWEE. Rowing performance and V.O(2max) were both related to MHWEE and EET. Also, rowing performance was related to EE1, EE2, and EE3. In contrast, V.O(2)4 % was not related to the estimated energy expenditures. These results suggest that rowing performance and V.O(2max) are related to training load while V.O(2)4 % was not in the present group of highly trained oarsmen.
