Upper limb isokinetic muscle strength predicts the performance in cross-country sit-skiing
The double poling (DP) technique in cross-country sit-skiing is primarily considered as an upper-body exercise. The upper limb muscle strength and motion economy are important factors accounting for DP performance in cross-country sit-skiing. The present
