The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of intensive one-month training periodization based on in-season multiple performance analysis on race performance of a master category road cyclist. A male athlete aged 44 years, height 178 cm, weight 79 kg, body mass index 25, and age 44 years, height 178 cm, weight 79 kg, and body mass index 25, who was actively competing in the road cycling master category, participated in the study voluntarily. Our study was conducted between 01.09.2022/02.10.2022 for the race in the 2022 season race calendar (Fethiye Lycian Grandfounda 02.10.2022). Anthropometric (subcutaneous fat) measurements and Functional Threshold Power (FTP) tests were performed as pre- and post-tests in a multiple analysis system (APPA). Anthropometric measurement (subcutaneous fat), Maximal Heart Rate, Mean Heart Rate, Mean Power, Normalized Power, Maximal Power, Mean Speed and Mean Cadence values were taken from the pre and post test data and numerical comparison was made. Pre and post test values showed a decrease in body weight and fat ratios in anthropometric measurements. Positive differences were determined in heart rate and power values obtained from FTP test values. Our cyclist who participated in the study ranked 3rd among 15 participants in the master ketogory. In addition, with the same training program (with changes in loading intensities), he was 1st in the UCI Grand Fondo 20 November 2022 (40-44 age master group).Conclusion; Based on the data we obtained, it can be said that the multiple analysis system test results and individual training periodization are effective. The training model and periodization we applied can be a model for cyclists and coaches who will work in this field.

Master Kategorisi Yol Bisikletçisinin Sezon İçi Çoklu Performans Analizine Bağlı Yoğun Bir Aylık Antrenman Periyotlamasının Yarış Performansı Üzerine Etkisi

Öz

Çalışmanın amacı; master kategorisi yol bisikletçisinin sezon içi çoklu performans analizine bağlı yoğun bir aylık antrenman periyotlamasının yarış performansına üzerine etkisinin incelenmesidir. Çalışmaya 40 yaş üstü aktif olarak yol bisikleti master kategorisinde müsabık olan yaşı 44, boyu 178 cm., ağırlığı 79kg. ve beden kütle indeksi 25 olan bir erkek sporcu gönüllü olarak katıldı. Çalışmamız 2022 sezonu yarış takviminde yer alan (Fethiye Likya Grandfounda 02.10.2022) yarışına yönelik 01.09.2022/02.10.2022 tarihleri arasında yapıldı. Çoklu analiz sisteminde (APPA) ön ve son test olarak Antropometrik (deri altı yağ) ölçümleri ve Fonksiyonel Eşik Güç (FTP) testleri yapıldı. Ön ve son test verilerinden Antropometrik ölçüm (Deri altı yağ) Maksimal Kalp Atım Sayısı, Ortalama Kalp Atım Sayısı, Ortalama Power, Normalize Power, Maksimal Power, Ortalama Hız ve Ortalama Kadans değerleri alınarak sayısal olarak karşılaştırma yapıldı. Ön ve son test değerleri Antropometrik ölçümlerde vücut ağırlığı ve yağ oranlarında düşüş belirlenmiştir. FTP test değerlerden elde edilen verilerden kalp atım sayı ve power değerlerde pozitif yönde farklılıklar belirlenmiştir. Çalışmaya katılan bisikletçimiz master ketogorisinde 15 katılımcı içerisinden 3. olmuştur. Ayrıca aynı antrenman programı (yüklenme şiddetleri değişikleri ile) uygulamaları ile UCI Grand Fondo 20 kasım 2022 de (40-44 yaş master grubu) 1. olmuştur.Sonuç; Elde ettiğimiz verilere dayanarak çoklu analiz sistemi test sonuçları ve bireysel antrenman periyotlamasının etkin olduğu söylenebilir. Uyguladığımız antrenman model ve periyotlaması bu alanda çalışma yapacak bisikletçi ve antrenörlere model oluşturabilir.
