The New Science of “Fatigue Resistance” | Outside Online
サイクリストをサンプルとして、疲労を蓄積した状態で出せる出力の落ち幅にどれだけ差があるかというのを検証したもの。ステージレースのGCを争うような選手は疲労が蓄積した状態でもその落ち幅が小さいという結果だそうな。なるほど。ブルベでも速い人は後半になってもペースが落ちないもんな。
もちろんいろいろ留保はあるけど、じゃぁどうしたら疲労耐性を鍛えられるのかというのは気になるところ。
Still, when I asked Leo how to develop fatigue resistance, he did have a few practical suggestions. One is that running low on carbohydrates seems to make fatigue resistance worse—an observation that dovetails with other data from the Breaking2 project, which found that taking in 60 grams of carbohydrate per hour improved fatigue resistance. In training, Leo and his colleagues hypothesize that the volume of training you do is more important than the intensity for developing fatigue resistance. And you might try including intervals or sprints toward the end of a longer ride, he suggested: four x 8:00 hard with 4:00 recovery after three to four hours of lower-intensity riding, for example.
ということらしい。そうだよねぇ。
