Sex Differences in Training Loads during British Army Basic Trainingстатья из журнала
Аннотация: ABSTRACT Purpose To compare training loads between men and women during 14 wk of British Army standard entry basic training. Methods Thirty-one male (mean ± SD: age, 21 ± 4 yr; height, 1.78 ± 0.08 m; mass, 77.1 ± 10.5 kg) and 28 female (age, 22 ± 4 yr; height, 1.65 ± 0.05 m; mass, 63.9 ± 8.9 kg) British Army recruits had external (distance) and internal (HR, training impulse [TRIMP], RPE) training loads measured during weeks 1, 2, 6, 12, and 13 of basic training. Total energy expenditure was measured during weeks 1 to 2 and weeks 12 to 13. Results Daily distance was higher for men than women (13,508 ± 666 vs 11,866 ± 491 m, respectively, P < 0.001). Average daily HR (29% ± 3% vs 30% ± 3% HR reserve) and RPE (4 ± 1 vs 4 ± 1) were not different between men and women, respectively ( P ≥ 0.495). Daily TRIMP was higher for women than men (492 ± 130 vs 261 ± 145 au, respectively, P < 0.001). Total energy expenditure was higher for men than women during weeks 1 to 2 (4020 ± 620 vs 2847 ± 323 kcal·d −1 , respectively) and weeks 12 to 13 (4253 ± 556 kcal·d −1 vs 3390 ± 344 kcal·d −1 , respectively) ( P < 0.001). Daily RPE, HR, and TRIMP were related to daily distance ( R 2 = 0.18–0.57, P ≤ 0.037), and daily RPE was related to daily TRIMP and HR ( R 2 = 0.37–0.77, P ≤ 0.001). Conclusions Sex differences in training loads could contribute to the greater injury risk for women during basic training. Daily RPE appears a practical option for measuring internal training load during military training.
