Abstract

ABSTRACT Sprinting is a key component for many individual and team sports. Therefore, to enhance sprint performance, various training methods are widely used by coaches and practitioners, including maximum sprint speed and resisted sprint training. Resisted sprinting with sled towing is a method that has recently received considerable attention from the sport science community. However, to date, no consensus exists regarding its acute and chronic effects in team sport athletes. This narrative review aimed to (a) review and analyze the mechanics of sprinting under unresisted and resisted conditions with a specific focus on team sport disciplines; (b) provide a thorough and applied discussion on the importance of considering acute and chronic effects of sled loading on technique, electromyographic activity, and force production, as well as on the role of muscle architecture and neural factors in sled training; (c) analyze the effects of increasing sled loads during acceleration and maximum velocity phases on contact and flight phases, while concomitantly examining kinetic, kinematic, and neuromuscular aspects, because all these factors affect each other and cannot be properly understood in isolation.

运用雪橇训练提高团体运动运动员短跑成绩的述评

摘要：短跑是许多个人和团队运动的重要组成部分。因此，为了提高短跑成绩，教练和练习者广泛使用各种训练方法，包括最大短跑速度和抵抗短跑训练。雪橇牵引阻力短跑是一种最近受到体育科学界相当关注的方法。然而，到目前为止，对于其对团队运动运动员的急性和慢性影响，还没有达成共识。这篇叙述性综述旨在（a）回顾和分析在无阻力和有阻力的条件下短跑的机制，特别关注团队运动学科；（b）就考虑雪橇负荷对技术、肌电图活动和力量产生的急性和慢性影响的重要性，以及肌肉结构和神经因素在雪橇训练中的作用进行深入而实用的讨论；（c）分析在加速和最大速度阶段增加雪橇载荷对接触和飞行阶段的影响，同时检查动力学、运动学和神经肌肉方面，因为所有这些因素都会相互影响，无法单独正确理解。
