Endurance in speed skating [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2001 We analyse the development of world records speed skating from 1893 to 2000 for both men and women. The historical data show that it is likely that the relation between skating speed and distance of the various events is non-linear and converges to a ...

Estimation of ground reaction force direction in inline speed skating motion [PDF]
Frontiers in Sports and Active LivingThis study proposes and verifies a method to estimate the ground reaction force (GRF) direction from supporting-leg posture during speed skating. We hypothesized that GRF direction can be accurately estimated from supporting-leg posture.

Exploring performance-related inter-limb asymmetry thresholds in speed skating: a CART analysis approach [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyLong-term specialized training can lead to increased inter-limb asymmetry in speed skaters. While excessive inter-limb asymmetry may impair athletic performance, its impact on different skating phases and the corresponding thresholds remain unclear.
