Aerobic capacity is the basis of canoeing. As a sport which needs high strength, high lactate anaerobic glycolysis and aerobic oxidation energy supply, canoeist’s aerobic endurance level has a decisive impact on his performance. Based on the characteristics of the sport and the feature of energy supply, the article analyzes some evaluation methods in aerobic capacity measurement, i.e., 3000m endurance running test, maximum oxygen uptake test, blood lactic acid and anaerobic threshold measurement after high intensity load. Of all the aerobic capacity evaluation methods, anaerobic threshold measurement has been widely and effectively used, especially AT4 and IAT. And HRAT (heart rate anaerobic threshold) may become a new hot spot in anaerobic threshold research of canoeing. |
