Abstract
We analyze 3 types of maximum stress tests on the basis of the lack of professional information about competitive ski mountaineering. The obtained data was compared with the maximum stress test on the treadmill; bicycle ergometer and treadmill using a roller ski modified for ski mountaineering.
The values which were measured shows great technical demands on the test using roller skis. Based on this information, we recommend long-term training on the treadmill using roller skis, before the maximum load test.
The results show the smallest deviation of the maximum values among respondents who had previous experience with modified roller skis for ski mountaineering.
