ENERGETICS OF UPHILL CYCLING : A REVIEW
@inproceedings{Fonda2012ENERGETICSOU, title={ENERGETICS OF UPHILL CYCLING : A REVIEW}, author={B. Fonda and N. {\vS}arabon}, year={2012} }
The winners of the major cycling 3-week stage races (i.e. Giro d’Italia, Tour de France, Vuelta a Espana) are usually riders who dominate in the uphill sections of the race. Amateur cyclists, however, will often avoid uphill terrain because of the discomfort involved. Therefore, understanding movement behavior during uphill cycling is needed in order to find an optimum solution that can be applied in practice. The aim of this review is to assess the quality of research performed on biomechanics… CONTINUE READING
