Maximal Muscular Power, Aerobic and Anaerobic, in II6 Athletes performing at the XlXth Olympic Games in Mexico

摘要

Maximal aerobic and anaerobic power, together with fat-free body weight, were determined by means of indirect methods on a group of L16 athletes from different countries, competing in different events, on the occasion of the Olympic Games in Mexico (2300#x2009;m above sea level). The highest absolute value in terms of maximal aerobic energy expenditure was observed in the rowers (4400 ml O2/min or 2#xB7;1 hp), while if referred to 1 kg body weight the highest value was observed in long-distance runners (65 ml O2/kg min)
