I experienced a shoulder dislocation in 2008 at the age of 16. I came into the sport of canoe slalom 2 years previously but have paddled regularly for the past 8 years. A post injury assessment by a physio showed me that my muscular development was good but not in the right areas. I was overdevelop...

Could we bring the difference between VO2 max and aerobic capacity into this? VO2 max is tested at a high intensity which is relevant to our sport. However it is purely a measure of volume of oxygen.

In our sport we use all 3 energy systems, the predominant one being the lactic acid system. However we still require a high aerobic capacity or VO2 max for areas of a run where the intensity will drop (e.g. when slowing the pace on the approach to a tight stagger). during this time we are recoverin...
