PHYSIOLOGICAL AND DYNAMOMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS OF SAILORS IN THE ILCA YACHT CLASS: REVIEW

Sailing, as a sport, encompasses a wide array of boat classes and racing formats, demanding comprehensive physical fitness and rigorous training regimens. This study delves into the physiological and dynamometric characteristics of yachting techniques and effective training methods for sailors to optimize their performance. The research combines diverse methodologies, including literature analysis, physiological measurements, and the evaluation of methodological quality using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS). By leveraging these approaches, the study sheds light on the intricate interplay between environmental factors, physiological demands, and the performance of sailors in competitive sailing contexts. The findings emphasize the importance of tailored training methodologies in enhancing athletes' physical capabilities and improving their competitive edge in sailing competitions.
