A Study on the Physiological Profiles and Performance Characteristics of Modern Pentathletes

Modern pentathlon is characterized by the possible direct effects on performance of physical characteristics, fitness level, and record management therefore, obtaining information about level records can be an important factor in improving among athletes. To examine specificity anthropometrics, physiology, modern athletes, it necessary to analyze many factors for few researchers have measured or analyzed pentathletes. This study aimed anthropometric data elite pentathalon athletes through a literature review determine characteristics better performance, cardiorespiratory functions directly connected with sport shooting-running. The found that maximal heart rate (HRmax) ranged from 184.10 bpm 197.89 bpm, voluntary ventilation (VEmax) 151.7 L/min 163.05 L/min, oxygen uptake (VO2max) 54.4 ml/kg/min 75.97 ml/kg/min. For anaerobic threshold (AT) (VO2) 53.72 (82.6% VO2max) 63.65 (84.4% VO2max), 169 182 blood lactate concentration 10.64 mM 17.20 mM. Therefore, also develop effective interval training method threshold, endurance, tolerance. Further research needed identify AT tolerance rather than characteristics.
