루지 시뮬레이터의 동작패턴 개발을 위한 선수들의 체력요인 평가

This research was to propose importance and necessity for estimation of physical fitness factors to develop motion pattern of luge simulator. Most of simulators have been built by technology to provide similar movement without exercise effect or enhancing performance. Therefore, most simulator has been descend to scrap iron, not a system. But in case of winter sports, there are four seasons in korea and we had disadvantageous condition compared to other nation with one season. Beside, luge player trained in poor condition because that it was not popular sports in korean. Many development have progressed but, there still only produced without database of physical fitness factor for improving performance to player. We tried to estimate and build database of basal physical fitness in winter sports player that were luge, biathlon, curling, alpine skies, sky jump and skeleton. Basal physical fitness consists of muscle strength in whole body, muscular endurance, agility, muscular reaction, exclusive power and aerobic capacity in cardiopulmonary exercise test. The results showed that luge player needed more muscle strength and endurance in lower limbs especially than other sports. This database from results could be fundamental research to develop simulator for improving performance.
