An analysis of participation and performance by nationality at ‘Ironman Switzerland’ from 1995 to 2011 The ‘Ironman Switzerland’ is centrally located in Europe and we asked ourselves the question of which countries are the starters and which athletes achieve the fastest times.90% of the finishers come from Europe, the largest part from Switzerland and Germany.

The fastest times were achieved by athletes from Switzerland and Germany. Since the Ironman Triathlon is a world-spanning sport, future studies should investigate as the distribution of the finishers to the Ironman qualification race and the ‘Ironman Hawaii’ is, as well as the distribution and performance at the ‘Ironman Hawaii’ according to the origin of the athletes.

Weight and size in endurance athletes

Estimation bias: body mass and body height in endurance athletes The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a known variable that correlates with performance in endurance charges.The BMI is calculated on the basis of body size and body weight. We have a comparison of 1,607 athletes, including 255 women and 1.352 men, a comparison between the results for body weight and body size that tells us the athletes and the effectively measured values. Men like women underestimated their body weight and overestimated their body size, so the BMI was too low. Especially older athletes (> 35 years) have underestimated body weight and overestimated the body size so that it came to a significant difference in the BMI between the communicated numbers and the effectively measured numbers. All results can be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23409596/

Invited review für Asian Journal of Sports Medicine

Anthropometric and training characteristics in ultra-triathletes and ultra-marathoners The editor of Asian Journal of Sports Medicine wants me to write a ‘Invited Review’ on the aspects of training and physique in extreme foreigners such as runners and triathlets.It should be summarized in the current state of knowledge on this topic. We are currently on the analysis of the relationship between nationality and performance in extreme duration competitions.It is generally known that the Kenyans dominate the running tracks to the marathon.What comes after the marathon is not investigated.

Movement of upper body and basins at cyclists

Skilled movements of the torso and pelvis are vital to cycling performance There is something to be said for the elegance and quality of movement on the bicycle, features that ought to be appreciated in particular from elite level cyclists.

Focus your sights on the movement of the torso and pelvis of elite athletes and you will note a very skilled Sidebend Hip Hike (SBHH) sequence. Fabian Cancellara, performs these movements to perfection, an important reason why he excels at time trials. The same applies to Triathletes who perform at a high level. Rather than keeping the torso and pelvis perfectly still for the sake of physiological economy; the SBHH may improve efficiency by distributing the effort over a greater number of kinetic links and stabilize to reaction forces.
