Resumen
Las diferentes demandas de la competencia, junto con las características morfológicas y fisiológicas de los ciclistas han dado lugar a la aparición de las especialidades de ciclismo. Los objetivos de este estudio fueron determinar las diferencias en las características antropométricas y fisiológicas en ciclistas de ruta con diferentes especialidades, y para desarrollar un modelo multivariado para clasificar estas especialidades y predecir qué especialidad puede ser apropiado para un ciclista determinado. Veinte hombres ciclistas, aficionados de élite fueron clasificados por sus entrenadores, ya sea como pilotos terreno plano, escaladores de montaña, o los jinetes de todo terreno. Los estudios antropométricos y cardiorrespiratorias se llevaron a cabo entonces. Los resultados se analizaron mediante MANOVA y dos pruebas discriminantes. La mayoría de las diferencias entre los grupos de especialidades eran de carácter antropométrico. La única variable cardiorrespiratoria que difieren significativamente (p <0,05) fue el consumo máximo de oxígeno con respecto al peso corporal (VO2max/kg). La prueba discriminativa primeros clasificados del 100% de los ciclistas en su verdadera especialidad, y la segunda, que tuvo en cuenta sólo las variables antropométricas, clasificó correctamente el 75%. El modelo discriminante primero permite la especialidad probable de aún no élite ciclistas que se predijo a partir de un pequeño número de variables, y por lo tanto puede ayudar en su formación específica.
