Rowing performance and maximal oxygen uptake in elite rowers correlate with overall training load and energy expenditure. However, lactate threshold was not associated with training load in this study.

Area of Science:

  • Sports Science
  • Exercise Physiology
  • Rowing Performance Analysis

Background:

  • Elite rowing performance depends on physiological capacity and training.
  • Quantifying training load is crucial for optimizing performance and physiological adaptation.
  • Understanding the relationship between training load and physiological markers in rowers is essential.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between rowing performance and physiological parameters with estimated training load in elite oarsmen.
  • To determine how different intensities of training energy expenditure relate to rowing performance and physiological markers.

Main Methods:

  • Twenty-one international and national level oarsmen completed questionnaires on mean habitual weekly energy expenditure (MHWEE) and training energy expenditure (EET) at low (EE1), moderate (EE2), and high (EE3) intensities.

  • Physiological capability was assessed via incremental exercise testing to determine maximal oxygen uptake (V.O(2max)) and oxygen uptake at 4 mmol.l(-1) blood lactate (V.O(2)4 %).
  • Rowing performance was measured by the mean work rate during a 2000-m all-out ergometer test.

    • Main Results:

    • Rowing performance and V.O(2max) were significantly related to MHWEE and EET.
    • Rowing performance also correlated with EE1, EE2, and EE3, indicating intensity-specific training load relevance.
    • V.O(2)4 % showed no significant relationship with any of the estimated energy expenditure measures.

    Conclusions:

    • Rowing performance and maximal oxygen uptake in elite rowers are associated with the overall training load and energy expenditure.
    • Specific training intensities (low, moderate, high) are related to rowing performance.
    • The oxygen uptake at 4 mmol.l(-1) blood lactate is not directly related to the estimated training load in highly trained oarsmen.
