Critical Training
Critical Training (CT) represents a two week (80 hour) period of time at the beginning of the season for each crew. Much important work happens during these fourteen days, including key training, physical challenges, completion of the pack test, and the initial efforts at building crew cohesion. While it remains a vital piece of each crew's development, little is known about the CT process from a research standpoint. Researchers Dr. Chuck Dumke and soon to be Dr. Katie Christison from the University of Montana join host Charlie Palmer to discuss their multiple studies examining Critical Training, and the important results from these investigations. In the most recent study, nearly one in four subjects reached critical levels of Serum Creatine Kinase during CT. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37258394/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37258395/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34184652/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33769401/
