Abstract:Background
This study used metabolic phenotyping to explore the responses of highly-trained cross-country skiers to a standardized exercise test, which was part of the athletes’ routine testing, and determine whether metabolic phenotyping could discriminate specific physiological, performance, and illness characteristics.
Methods
Twenty-three highly-trained cross-country skiers (10 women and 13 men) participated in this study. Capillary whole-blood… Show more
