Horvath, M., Andersson, E. P., Kölnas, A., Spreitz, A., Boström, H., Sörfeldt, A., Kuylenstierna, D. “…However, the persistence of a significant difference in W' even when expressed in terms of estimated metabolic power at steeper inclines suggests the involvement of additional physiological mechanisms, potentially a larger amount of recruited muscle mass due to differences in muscle fiber recruitment between conditions.…”

Torres-Pérez, J., Fernández-Peña, E., Callovini, A., Pinedo-Jauregi, A. “…Cross-country (XC) skiing imposes high physiological demands under hypoxic conditions at altitude. Lactate thresholds such as Onset Blood Lactate Accumulation at 4 mmol/L (OBLA4) and lactate plus 1 mmol/L above baseline (Bsln+1.0) are crucial for tracking performance. …”

Kramers, S., Carrier-Laforte, S.,, Camiré, M. “…Sophie believed that their "mind shifted" towards becoming a "better coach" throughout the collaboration, developing their critical consciousness to change oppressive social conditions in sport. By sharing insights from the collaboration, the study provides vivid examples of the steps coaches and sport stakeholders can take to become more confident in enacting positive change in sport.…”

Feofilaktov, V. V., Heil, D., Myakinchenko, E. B., Smith, D. M., Kruchkov, A. S. “…The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research…”

Michalek, A. J. “…Creep indentation was used to characterize the temperature-dependent mechanical properties of three representative wax products recommended for new, old, and transformed snow conditions. Numerical modeling was used to predict vertical force amplitudes required to produce a desired kicking force. …”

Hindér, G., Sandberg, J., Kalliorinne, K., Holmberg, H.-C., Almqvist, A., Larsson, R. “…Utilising a linear ski tribometer, friction tests were performed on classic cross-country skiing skis prepared with no, thin, and thick grip wax under controlled laboratory conditions. The dynamic coefficient of friction was estimated under various load conditions, reflecting dynamic skiing motions. …”

Lund Ohlsson, M., Nilsson, M., Swarén, M. “…The results also highlight the need to tailor training and right adapted equipment to mitigate lower back stress, especially in flat terrain high-intensity conditions. The asymmetrical muscle activity and gender differences underscores the need for further investigation into biomechanical factors influencing back muscle engagement in cross-country skiing.…”

Yasuda, N., Tanioka, T., Tokairin, R., Yoneda, A., Hanaoka, K. “…Impact/Application to the field: In sports settings, rapid and informative feedback regarding the condition of athletes is desirable. Thus, mitochondrial copy number appears to be a more promising candidate than telomere length as a more sensitive and important biomarker for determining physical fitness in a non-invasive manner using saliva. …”

Quirion Cantin, N., Lépine, J., Bégin-Drolet, A. “…The tribometer can be used on a cross-country ski racetrack, providing measurements that reflect real-world racing conditions. This approach ensures that the findings are relevant and applicable to competitive skiing scenarios. …”

Svensson, D. “…The results show how being part of this community is conditioned on personal experience of active learning, historically as a skier yourself and currently as a coach who participates in the everyday work. …”

Auganæs, S. B. “…However, a significant influence of changing weather, snow conditions and skier position make this task challenging in the field. …”

Hirsch, L., Barioudi, H., Wintergerst, D., Rombach, R., Rapp, W., Felderhoff, T., Mrachacz-Kersting, N. “…Nine Able-bodied athletes were tested on a treadmill at submaximal speed in three sitting positions for 4 min in a flat and uphill condition. Sitting positions included a "knee-high" position, a "knee-low" position, and a "neutral" position with the sitting platform parallel to the ground. …”

Kårström, A., Swarén, M., Björklund, G. “…However, the type of training had a significant impact on AvFNet, especially leading to a decrease during COMB sessions under LIT conditions. Incorporating an external load metric could offer a fresh approach when prescribing and evaluating training, providing deeper insights into the training load.…”

Kalliorinne, K., Sandberg, J., Hind´er, G., Holmberg, H. C., Supej, M., Larsson, R., Almqvist, A. “…Over the years, researchers have found many ways ofquantifying ski-snow friction, but there are only a few methods that consider the glide of real-sized skis under natural conditions during both accelerating and decelerating movements. …”

Novikova, N. B., Ivanova, I. G., Beleva, A. N. “…Objective of the study was to assessment of the influence of competitive conditions on the biomechanical characteristics of the technique of simultaneous single-step skating skiing (SSS). …”

Kalliorinne, K. “…A regression model was developed for each condition based on the apparent contact length and the total real contact area. …”

Hindér, G., Kalliorinne, K., Sandberg, J., Almqvist, A., Holmberg, H.-C., Larsson, R. “…This information can be used to improve the Double Poling technique and make better choices of skis for specific snow conditions, ultimately leading to improved performance.…”

Torres-McGehee, T. M., Uriegas, N. A., Hauge, M., Monsma, E. V., Emerson, D. M., Smith, A. B. “…Abstract Context: Eating disorders (EDs) are a cluster of behavioral conditions characterized by uneasy thoughts and behaviors that grow into severe or persistent eating disturbances. …”

Kalliorinne, K. “…Depending on the prevailing snow and weather conditions, different friction mechanisms are thought to be dominant, so the choices of skis and preparations must be carefully considered and tested accordingly. …”

Stalin, A., Creese, M., Dalton, K. N. “…Nordic and alpine skiing-related visual tasks such as identifying hill contours, slope characteristics, and snow conditions increase demands on contrast processing and other visual functions. …”
