Abstract
We studied the way of training on land for speed skaters by analyzing the relationship between one-leg standing duration ability under unstable circumstances simulating skating and track performance. The analysis was performed for 31 speed skaters and for reference 10 people who used simulated skating boots developed for the purpose of measuring and training of posture control ability under unstable conditions which simulate speed skating movements. The results showed that the one-leg standing duration time of reinforced skaters was significantly longer than that of the non-reinforced skaters and the reference group. We suggest that simulation training of skate movement under unstable circumstances using the developed skating boots is useful for summer training when training on ice is impossible.
