Adaptación y Aplicabilidad del Test de Campo de los 6 Minutos en el Patinaje de Carreras en Línea Para Valorar la Velocidad Aeróbica Máxima

Abstract

The main objective of this study was to determine the applicability of the six-minute field test in online racing skating for the establishment of maximum aerobic speed (MAS) and the cardiovascular responses of the skater to a test of continuous field effort. Twenty-five skaters participated voluntarily (10 men and 15 women) from the North of Santander's Roller Pre Selection. The 6 minute test was performed on track and two pulse Sigma PC 3.11, cones, odometer, cassette player, audio and registration form were used. The statistical analysis was performed in the PSPP package in which the Shapiro-Wilk test of normality, the Mann-Whitney U test and the Wilcoxon test were applied. The results obtained were a maximum heart rate (HRmax) of 193,80±6,60 ppm in men and 191,40±9,37 ppm in women, likewise no significant differences were obtained between the HRrmax of the test and the estimated for the Age in men (p>0,05), whereas in women if it was significant (P<0,05), on the other hand, the intensity of the test is classified into a very strong for both sexes (>90% HRmax), likewise the speed obtained in men (9,78 m/s±0,38 m/s) and women (9,30±0,36 m/s) obtained significant differences (p<0,05). In conclusion the test of the 6 minutes allows to control the HRmax and the MAS in the skating of races in a specific, useful, practical and reproducible way.
