Table 1.
Weekly endurance, strength, speed training, plyometric and mobility training during the 8-week intervention training period in 17 highly trained female cross country skiers (hh:mm and percent).
Fig 1.
Individual data points for one repetition maximum before (a) and after the intervention period (b) and for average power at 40% of one repetition maximum before (c) and after the intervention period (d) for the upper-body sprint-interval training group (SIG) and the control group (CG). Mean values are represented by the thick line with black circles. Significant within-group changes: *p<0.05, **p<0.001; Significant different change from pre to post between groups: #p<0.05.
Fig 2.
Individual data points for peak velocity in diagonal stride before (a) and after the intervention period (b) and for peak oxygen uptake in double poling before (c) and after the intervention period (d) for the upper-body sprint-interval training group (SIG) and the control group (CG). Mean values are represented by the thick line with black circles. Significant within-group changes: *p<0.05.
Fig 3.
Individual data points for peak velocity in double poling before (a) and after the intervention period (b) and for maximal oxygen uptake in diagonal stride before (c) and after the intervention period (d) for the upper-body sprint-interval training group (SIG) and the control group (CG). Mean values are represented by the thick line with black circles. Significant within-group differences: *p<0.05; Significant different change from pre to post between groups: #p<0.05.
