Therefore, it is important to study the relationship between the environment and the skin. The purpose of this study is to determine how the skin barrier functions change at low temperatures. Methods: This study was performed at a Korean ski resort on January 2015 and evaluated 10 subjects skin condition during skiing. Skin properties were examined at 2 sites (cheeks and dorsal hands) and four time points (indoor;baseline, outdoor;after first skiing and after second skiing, indoor;after taking a shower). Results: The skin hydration on the cheek decreased after the second skiing session and the erythema decreased only after the first skiing while this value on dorsal hand was not changed by skiing. The brightness and yellowness of cheek skin increased and redness decreased therefore, skin color became pale during skiing. The extensibility of cheeks and dorsal hands decreased after skiing. We found positive correlation between skin temperature and redness (r2 = 0.707, p Conclusions: Low temperatures can affect human skin color so that the skin color becomes pale because capillary blood vessels shrink when skin is exposed to cold environment. The cheek skin tends to change easily than dorsal hand during ambient temperature change.展开更多

文摘Purpose The purpose was to investigate whether an increased amount of training while carrying the rifle affects skiing in well-trained biathletes at submaximal and maximal workloads during a pre-season period lasting a minimum of 12 weeks.Methods Seventeen well-trained biathletes(9 females,8 males)were assigned to an intervention(IG,n=10)or control(CG,n=7)group.Before(T1)and after(T2)the training intervention all participants performed,using treadmill roller-skiing,a submaximal test without the rifle on one day and two submaximal workloads and a maximal time trial(TT)with the rifle on a subsequent day.Between T1 and T2 all participants performed a minimum of 12 weeks of normal training,the only difference between groups being that IG performed more of their training sessions carrying the rifle.Results IG performed more training compared to CG(15.4±1.1 vs.11.2±2.6 h/week,P<0.05),including a higher amount of training with the rifle(3.1±0.6 vs.1.1±0.3 h/week,P<0.001).Speed at 4 mmol/L of blood lactate increased significantly for CG from T1 to T2(P=0.028),while only tended to increase for IG(P=0.058).Performance during the TT,VO2max and the aerobic metabolic rate increased significantly from T1 to T2,although the differences disappeared when including the speed at baseline as a covariate.Conclusion According to the present results,increasing training while carrying the rifle by 2 h/week does not appear to improve skiing performance in well-trained biathletes.In addition,physiological markers at submaximal and maximal intensities while carrying the rifle were not affected after the training intervention.

文摘Purpose Pacing profiles differ substantially in endurance sports with short competition duration(2-4 min).Herein,we investigated the effect of a fast start(FS)versus a conservative start(CS)pacing strategy on sprint time-trial performance in competitive junior cross-country skiers.Methods Sixteen females(~17 years old)performed two individual self-paced 1.4 km time-trials(TT)in free technique on roller skis separated by 40 min of recovery.Skiers were instructed to perform a FS and CS pacing strategy the first~400-m(~1 min)in a randomized order.Split and finish time was determined using radio-based photocells,while speed characteris-tics were collected with GNSS/IMU sensors.1-10 Rate of perceived exertion(RPE)was collected retrospectively for 3 points during the TT.Based on mean FS and CS performance,skiers were divided into a Low-(n=8)and High performers(n=8).Results Overall,the FS strategy induced a faster~400-m time(56.0±3.8 s)than CS(58.7±3.4 s)(P<0.05),but no differ-ences in finish times were found between strategies for the group as a whole(FS:213.3±12.0 s;CS,212.9±10.3 s,P=0.68).However,High performers skied faster with FS than CS(203.4±7.4 s vs.205.1±7.1 s;0.8%±0.7%,P<0.05),whereas the Low performers skied faster with CS than FS(220.7±6.1 s vs.223.1±5.0 s;1.1%±1.0%,P<0.05).Independent of performance level,summated RPE during the TT was higher with FS versus CS(23±2 vs.22±2,P<0.05).Conclusion Optimal pacing strategy for TT sprint skiing appears dependent of performance level.A“fast start”strategy was accompanied by higher discomfort during the time-trial.

文摘To address the contradiction between the rapid development of ski tourism and effective protection of the ecological environment,this study constructed the DPSIR-EES(Drive-Pressures-State-Impact-Response-Environment-Economy-Society)model and Ski Tourism Destination Ecological Security System(STDESS)framework system.They form an integrated methodology system based on the“entropy weighting-hierarchical analysis-gray correlation projection”composite weighting method that can be used to clarify the intrinsic mechanism of ecological security in ski tourism destinations.Taking Chongli as a case study,this study evaluated the evolution of its ecological security from 1995 to 2023,predicted the ecological security early warning levels from 2024 to 2050,and analyzed the mechanism of influences on regional ecological security.The findings indicate that the ecological security of ski tourism destinations shows a significant“stepped leap–dynamic equilibrium”evolutionary path.The dynamic response mechanism of the subsystems is characterized by significant heterogeneity.The ecological security early warning system revealed the temporal and sequential differentiation of risk transmission.The factors influencing ecological security show the significant dual dominance of policy and climate.This paper enhances the applicability of ecological security systems within ski tourism contexts by analyzing their evolutionary characteristics,predicted future changes and impact factors,and it provides an effective case study for ecological improvement.
文摘Purpose:This study aimed to compare biomechanical aspects of a novel"running"diagonal stride(DSRUN)with"conventional"diagonal stride(DSCONV)skiing techniques performed at high speed.Methods:Ten elite Italian male junior cross-country skiers skied on a treadmill at 10 km/h and at a 10°incline utilizing both variants of the diagonal stride technique.The 3-dimensional kinematics of the body,poles,and roller skis;the force exerted through the poles and foot plantar surfaces;and the angular motion of the leg joints were determined.Results:Compared to DSCONV,DSRUN demonstrated shorter cycle times(1.05±0.05 s vs.0.75±0.03 s(mean±SD),p<0.001)due to a shorter rolling phase(0.40±0.04 s vs.0.09±0.04 s,p<0.001);greater force applied perpendicularly to the roller skis when they had stopped rolling forward(413±190 N vs.890±170 N,p<0.001),with peak force being attained earlier;prolonged knee extension,with a greater range of motion during the roller ski-stop phase(28°±40 vs.16°±3°,p=0.00014);and more pronounced hip and knee flexion during most of the forward leg swing.The mechanical work performed against friction during rolling was significantly less with DSRUN than with DSCONV(0.04±0.01 J/m/kg vs.0.10±0.02 J/m/kg,p<0.001).Conclusion:Our findings demonstrate that DSRUN is characterize by more rapid propulsion,earlier leg extension,and a greater range of motion of knee joint extension than DSCONV-Further investigations,preferably on snow,should reveal whether DSRUN results in higher acceleration and/or higher peak speed.
