Coach Sorin called the temperature minus 20 degrees the limit for skiing
The coach of the Russian national skiing team, Yegor Sorin, named the minimum permissible air temperature for skiing. Match TV reports this.
According to him, the limit is minus 20 degrees. “But everything also depends on the sun, wind and humidity. It happens that even at minus 20 or so you can do a workout, but for this you need the sun to shine, it to be drier, and the humidity not so high. In Moscow, at 16-17 degrees below zero, you don’t need to go for a ride,” Sorin noted.
On October 25, the Council of the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS) extended the suspension of Russian athletes for the 2023/2024 season. For the first time, domestic athletes were suspended in March 2022. After this, the decision was extended several times.
In January, coach and sports physiologist Nikita Skripnik revealed the rules for safe running in winter. According to him, one must remember that the loads must be adequate, regular and increase smoothly. “Frosty climate is not a natural environment for humans. It takes time to adapt to the reduced temperature, both from the point of view of thermoregulation and for the efficiency of pulmonary gas exchange,” the coach said.
