Summary

Will motor skill- and/or strength training affect technique, work economy and time performance in cross-country poling? Competitive cross-country skiers (age 16- 30) will perform a 10 weeks training intervention. They will be randomized in one of the following three groups: poling specific motor skill training 3 times per week in addition to their regular training, maximal strength training 3 times per week in addition to their regular training and a control group who only perform their regular training. Pre- and post intervention, all participants will perform tests in VO2max (running), VO2max (poling), work economy (poling), video and inertial measurement unit (IMU) analyzes of poling technique, time performance test (poling), motor skill tests and maximal strength tests.
