Abstract

Although issues of training in professional triathlon are well highlighted and studied, the approach to supply, including medical-pedagogical aspects, still remains under debates in amateur triathlon. The intensity and volume of exercise loads in amateur triathlon tend to those in professional sports, whereas there is no consensus on efficient training strategy for active individuals engaged in amateur endurance sports. The objective of the study was to define the role of cardiovascular testing in training program design in amateur triathlon. Twenty-four healthy active male amateur triathletes aged 26-43 years participated in the study. Four trials of testing (hemodynamics and gas-exchange monitoring) were conducted to justify the amendments to training schedule. Based on significant differences of initial hemodynamic parameters (SV, SI, EDV, EDI) subjects were divided into 2 groups. Determining of the weak aspects of their functional state enabled to develop an efficient training schedule at the ongoing experiment stages. The obtained results of the final testing showed significant increase in VO2max, maximal power (Pmax) in cycling stress-test and LV volume characteristics in amateur triathletes.
