Notes: Sumario: The aims of this study were to examine the effects of one self-selected and two enforced pacing strategies (constant and variable power output) on cycling performance during a time trial in which variable wind conditions were simulated. Riders should choose a constant power when external conditions are constant, but when there are hilly or variable wind sections in the race, a variable power strategy should be planned. This strategy would be best monitored with "power-measuring devices" rather than heart rate of subjetive feelings as the sensitivity of these variables to small but meaningful changes in power durin a race is lowRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 43, nº 10, October 2000 ; p. 1449-1460Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonometría Ciclismo Pruebas físicas Viento Otros autores: Brunskill, Adam
