Upper-Body Muscular Endurance Training Improves Performance Following 50 min of Double Poling in Well-Trained Cross-Country Skiers [PDF]
This study investigated the effect of muscular endurance training on O2-cost and performance in double poling (DP) on a rollerski treadmill. Twenty-two well-trained cross-country skiers (31 ± 4 years, 77 ± 9 kg, 181 ± 8 cm, VO2max running: 64 ± 5 mL·kg−1·

Effects of speed and incline on double-poling biomechanics
This study investigated the independent and combined effects of incline and speed on the kinetics and cycle characteristics of double poling. Seventeen trained male cross-country skiers completed a maximum speed, a maximum incline, and a constant-power ...

Double Shadows at the Lunar Poles
Abstract Topographic depressions within permanently shadowed regions (PSRs) on low-obliquity planetary bodies can be shielded not only from direct illumination, but also from scattered sunlight and thermal emission from nearby sunlit surfaces.

The Influence of Pole Length on Performance, O2 Cost, and Kinematics in Double Poling [PDF]
Purpose:In the double-poling (DP) cross-country-skiing technique, propulsive forces are transferred solely through the poles. The aim of the current study was to investigate how pole length influences DP performance, O2 cost, and kinematics during treadmill roller skiing.Methods:Nine male competitive cross-country skiers (24 ± 3 y, 180 ± 5 cm, 72 ± 5 ...
