“…2c-f). During the all-out test using the TCS, higher levels of IMP and Me Force were obtained by the kayakers that were capable to produce and sustain the force throughout the 30 s. The capacity to produce and sustain higher levels of force are extremely necessary for the slalom kayakers to negotiate the gates and travel around natural obstacles [20]. Therefore, the inverse correlations of Me Force /IMP and TR may mean some similarity of the anaerobic capacity required in the all-out test and simulated race.…”

“…This result may have contributed to the absence of relationship between MV and TR. However, the variation of 42.8 meters is normal in a race and occurred due to different strategies adopted by the kayakers [13,20]. Additionally, taking into consideration the 24 gates travelled by the kayakers, the mean difference from gate to gate comprises only 1.78 meters.…”

“…One major challenge of the all-out test using the TCS is that the kayaker does not have significant displacement through the test. Indeed, during a canoe slalom race the kayaker performs many kinds of paddles [13][14][15] across natural obstacles [20]. Nevertheless, Hunter, et al [14] state that during a canoe slalom race, 67-71 % of the paddles are propulsive stroke named as forward stroke.…”

“…ers perform 2 runs, and the winner is defined by the time taken to complete the entire course [20]. Penalties of 2-50 s are incurred if the athlete touches or fails to negotiate any gate correctly [23].…”

The aims of this study were to use a specific all-out 30-sec tethered test to determine the anaerobic parameters in elite kayakers and verify the relationship between these results and sports performance. Twelve elite slalom kayakers were evaluated. The tethered canoe system was created and used for the all-out 30-sec test application. Measurements of peak force, mean force, minimum force, fatigue index and impulse were performed. Performance evaluation was determined by measuring the time of race in a simulated race containing 24 gates on a white-water course. Blood was collected (25-µl) for analysis of lactate concentration at rest and at 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10-min intervals after both the all-out test and the simulated race. The Pearson product moment correlation shows a inverse and significant relationship of peak force, mean force and impulse with time of race. Blood lactate concentrations after the all-out test and the simulated race peak at same time (4 min). Additionally, no interaction was visualized between time and all-out test/simulated race for blood lactate concentrations (P <0.365). These results suggest a relationship between the parameters of the all-out test and performance. Thus, the tethered canoe system is a useful tool for determining parameters that could be used in training control of slalom kayakers.

“…These investigations provided fundamental advances related to the metabolic demand during simulated race 1 , energy production via aerobic and anaerobic sources throughout physiological evaluation 2,3,4,5 and physical development of slalom kayakers after training 6 . Apart from the metabolic/physiological relevance, other factors such as sleep traits, nutrition, genetic profile and psychological can significantly affect athletes' performance; however, literature involving these factors on canoe slalom is scarce 7 .…”

The aims of this study were to investigate and characterize the anthropometric, nutritional, genetic, psychological and sleep variables of slalom kayakers, and to verify the correlation of these variables with the slalom kayakers' performance. Methods: Ten elite Brazilian team slalom kayakers participated of this study. Nutritional analysis was made by the Food Record (three days), 24 Hour Dietary Recall and Food Frequency Questionnaire. The ACE I/D, AGTMet235Thr, ACTN3R577X and BDKRB2+9/-9 were genotyped for genetic profile. The Profile of Mood States (POMS) and Sports Competition Anxiety Test (SCAT) were applied to investigate the psychological variables. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Epworth Sleep Scale (ESS) and Morningness-eveningness questionnaire (MEQ) were used for sleep traits analysis. Performance trials were performed on a white-water course with 24 gates, and finish time was considered as the variable related to performance. Results: Significant correlations were obtained between Performance Time Trial and %Fat (r=0.77), Energy (r=-0.75), Protein (r=-0.76), Carbohydrate (r=-0.72), Vitamin B6 (r=-0.87), Vitamin A (r=-0.82), Thiamine (r=-0.77), Riboflavin (r=-0.71), Magnesium (r=-0.86) and Phosphorus (r=-0.74) intake, besides the Fatigue mood domain (r=0.73) and the SCAT score (r=0.67). Athletes genotyped with the I, T, R and +9 alelle also presented better performances. Conclusions: In summary, the novel results provided by this study reinforce the necessity of considering several aspects during athlete development in order to achieve better performance in competitions.
