Didelio meistriškumo baidarininkų aerobinio pajėgumo ugdymas metiniu ciklu

Abstract

Aerobic capacity has a great influence on 1000 m kayak rowing event sport result; for this reason, prevailing training loads within yearly cycle are targeted at the development of circulatory and respiratory system and muscles ability to consume oxygen. The aim of our research was to investigate Lithuanian elite kayak rowers’ preparation during yearly training cycle, highlighting the factors of influence on their sport progress, as well as to evaluate the level and evolution of separate body systems and aerobic capacity. The object of the research was the training process of Lithuanian kayak rowers’ (K-2) during yearly cycle preparing for 2013 World Championship, and the change of the kayak rowers’ aerobic capacities. The research was carried out in the first year of Olympic four-year cycle, preparing for 2013 World Championship, where the athletes became the winners of the 10th place in 1000 m event (K-2). Training load, carried out during this yearly cycle, was examined and grouped into 5 zones of intensity. Boat speed, distance and athletes’ heart rate (HR) had been estimated using computer system Garmin Connect Forerunner 910 XT. Work intensity had been evaluated by establishing lactate (La) concentration in capillary blood samples. Gas analyzer “Oxycon Mobile 781012-052-5.2” was used for establishment of the athletes’ aerobic capacity indices at critical intensity limit (CIL), as well as at the limit of anaerobic threshold (AnT). Special anaerobic alactic capacity was analyzed by applying the test of maximal efforts, the work being performed using special kayak rowing ergometer “Dansprint”. According to the results of the research, preparation of the athletes for 2013 World Championship was compiled of one macro-cycle, and possessed characteristic for it features. [...]
