Inspite of the specific demands the events could be classified into four subgroups. The aerobic endurance events included cross-country skiing, long-distance running and nordic combination. The canoeists, 800m runners and alpine skiers were classified into anaerobic enduranos athletes. The third group of events, ice hockey and speed skating, were
regarded as speed endurance events. The skijumpers 100 - 400m runners, jumpers and throwers formed the fourth group of events: power events. Based on the correlation coefficients between various parameters it is suggested that the neuromuscular and anaerobic determinants of physical performance capacity are opposite characteristics of aerobic performance capacity both at whole body level and at muscle tissue level.
