Upper- vs. Lower-Body Exercise Performance in Female and Male Cross-Country Skiers
Purpose: To investigate the interaction between exercise modality (i.e., upper- and lower-body exercise) and sex in physiological responses and power output (PO) across the entire intensity spectrum (i.e., from low to maximal intensity).Methods: Ten male

Developments in the Biomechanics and Equipment of Olympic Cross-Country Skiers
Here, our aim was to describe the major changes in cross-country (XC) skiing in recent decades, as well as potential future developments. XC skiing has been an Olympic event since the very first Winter Games in Chamonix, France, in 1924.
