The aim of the study was to determine the optimal interval between competitions for success in World Para Powerlifting events. A total of 1034 female (age = 34.4 ± 9.1 yrs) and 1,697 male (age = 33.7 ± 8.3 yrs) competition results from international Paralympic powerlifting events conducted between 2014 and 2020 were analyzed. Odds ratios for preparations intervals between competitive events were evaluated considering the dependent variable, earning a medal, and the independent variable, level of competition. There was an increased probability of winning a medal when the preparation interval was in the range of 22-30 wks ( P = 0.004), as compared with less than 11 wks, while competing at World Cup events, whereas for World Championships and Paralympic Games, there was an increased probability of winning a medal when the interval range was 23-31 wks ( P = 0.002) and 40 wks or more ( P = 0.011) compared with less than 23 wks. However, there were no significant differences between preparation intervals for Regional Games/Championships. The Para Powerlifting athletes participating in the World Cup events, World Championships, and Paralympic Games share an optimal interval for success of approximately 21-31 wks and results from the World Championships and Paralympic Games, which can also be optimized with an interval of 40 wks or more.
本研究旨在确定世界残疾人举重赛事成功的最佳比赛间隔。对 2014 年至 2020 年期间举行的国际残奥会举重赛事中 1034 名女性(年龄=34.4±9.1 岁)和 1697 名男性(年龄=33.7±8.3 岁)的比赛结果进行了分析。考虑到因变量(获得奖牌)和自变量(比赛级别),评估了比赛之间准备间隔的胜算比。与少于 11 周相比,在世界杯比赛中,准备间隔在 22-30 周范围内( P =0.004),赢得奖牌的概率增加,而在世界锦标赛和残奥会中,准备间隔在 23-31 周范围内( P =0.002)和 40 周或更长时间( P =0.011),赢得奖牌的概率增加,与少于 23 周相比。然而,区域比赛/锦标赛的准备间隔之间没有显著差异。参加世界杯、世界锦标赛和残奥会的残疾人举重运动员的成功最佳间隔约为 21-31 周,世界锦标赛和残奥会的结果也可以通过 40 周或更长的间隔进行优化。
