Synopsis of current developments: Outdoor sports

Abstract

To understand the perspectives taken in the assembly of this synopsis, first I will say a few words about my own field of research - which is focused in the area of exercise physiology issues in connection with practical performance diagnosis, computer-aided interpretations as well as the occurring relevant questions concerning this subject. The main work has been done in the area of top elite sports (energy supply mechanisms, muscular adaptation, high altitude physiology), but also many studies have taken place in the field of basic working / exercise physiology and advanced sport science, for the industry and also for the use of different facilities in the practical field of sport and the army. © 2006 Springer-Verlag New York.
