ABSTRACT
Introduction: Analysis of biomedical indicators as a component of sport training theory and methodology is a crucial part of its management process. Describing and analyzing the physiological effects of specific hypoxic training on pentathletes is the prospective basis to model effective training programs significantly impacting on sport performance, allowing appropriate dosing of physical stimuli.
Objective: Determine some indicators related to breathing gas exchange and cardiac and metabolic responses by male under-23 Ecuadorian pentathletes during altitude training.
Methods: A study was conducted of the male under-23 military pentathlon team of the Ecuadorian Armed Forces (six subjects) during the 2014 training macrocycle. The indicators analyzed were weight, heart rate, VO2 max, rhythm, speed, lactate, correlation coefficient, and blood lactate and heart rate recovery speed.
Results: Four tables show the data obtained, both individual and average for the study population. The most relevant data include an estimate of heart rate at rest with an average 46.33 ppm, below international standards. Other indicators were also considerably lower than the values expected, but individual analysis of subjects revealed characteristics useful for future training.
Conclusions: It is recommended to further strengthen the functional parameters studied via a better use of physical stimuli, making use of the advantages inherent to altitude training to eventually develop national standard values of interest to both trainers and the technical committee for the sport being analyzed.
