(35% of total run time) involved training at or above 60% laboratory determined VO2max, but less than the lactate threshold, indicating high metabolic demands during the O-course training for both aerobic and anaerobic energy pathways (Figure 6). Heart rate averaged 173.6 beats per minute (87% HRmax) and peaked at 195.6 beats per min (98% HRmax) during the first run, and averaged 181.8 beats per minute (91% HRmax) and peaked at 197.6 beats per minute (99%HRmax) during the second run. Thus improving performance in training tasks similar to those tasks performed in the O-course requires adapting and enhancing both energy systems to optimize physical performance. Predictors of Injury and Optimal Performance The range of motion and flexibility data are presented in Table 8. A total of 24 comparisons were made between Soldiers and triathletes. Male Soldiers of the 101st demonstrated significantly greater right and left shoulder flexion; left shoulder extension; and right and left shoulder abduction than male triathletes. Male triathletes demonstrated significantly less posterior shoulder tightness for both the right and left shoulder as well as significantly greater right and left hip flexion. Male Soldiers of the 101st had significantly greater right and left hip extension and right and left calf flexibility. The comparisons between female Soldiers of the 101st and female triathletes revealed significant differences across nine of the flexibility and range of motion measures. Female 101st Soldiers had significantly greater right and left shoulder abduction but had more posterior shoulder tightness bilaterally than female triathletes. Female 101st Soldiers also had significantly greater knee flexion range of motion and calf flexibility. Right torso rotation was significantly greater in female triathletes compared to female 101st Soldiers. 10 Figure 6: VO2 response during the O-Course Journal of Special Operations Medicine Volume 10, Edition 4 / Fall 10 Strength data are presented in Table 9. A total of 20 comparisons were made between Soldiers and triathletes. Male triathletes had significantly stronger left shoulder internal and external rotation; left knee flexion; and greater right knee flexion/extension strength ratio compared to male 101st Soldiers. Male 101st Soldiers had significantly stronger right and left ankle inversion and ankle eversion strength than male triathletes. Female triathletes had significantly stronger left shoulder internal rotation; right and left shoulder external rotation; right and left knee flexion; and left knee extension strength than female 101st Soldiers. The balance data are presented in Table 10. Six comparisons were made for each of the two balance conditions tested (eyes open and eyes closed). The statistical analysis revealed only one significant difference between the 101st Soldiers and the triathletes, male 101st Soldiers had significantly lower (better) left leg medial/lateral ground reaction forces standard deviation (GRF SD) than male triathletes. The physiology data is presented in Table 11. A total of 10 comparisons were made. Despite no significant difference observed in body mass index, male triathletes had significantly less body fat than male 101st Soldiers. Male triathletes also had greater mean anaerobic power, VO 2max , VO 2 at lactate threshold, and percent VO 2 at lactate threshold. Female triathletes had significantly lower body mass index and body fat percentage than female 101st Soldiers. Female triathletes also had significantly greater peak anaerobic power, mean anaerobic power, VO 2max , VO 2 at lactate threshold, percent VO 2 at lactate threshold, and heart rate at lactate threshold than female 101st Soldiers. The biomechanical data for the stopjump task and the vertical drop landing task are presented in Table 12 and Table 13 respectively. A total of 12 comparisons were made for each task.
