Exercise economy in skiing and running [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
Substantial inter-individual variations in exercise economy exist even in highly trained endurance athletes. The variation is believed to be determined partly by intrinsic factors. Therefore, in the present study, we compared exercise economy in V2-skating, double poling, and uphill running.
