    Get it right. Roller SKIS, not rollerskates Time penalties are only in the Individual competition, most events have a penalizing loop no biathlete I know sees a sports psych (at least not to discuss how to keep their heads clear) I believe I read somewhere that the top men consume closer to 10k calories per day.

    newt youre exactly correct about all that stuff. Especially calorie intake. Swimmers eat a pile too. Ive heard gymnasts like to raid the swimmers rooms at the olympic village cuz they always have food & gymnastic coaches are always trying to keep their athletes slim so gymnasts often sneak over to the swimmers rooms for snacks & junk food

    Maybe the toughest Winter Olympic sport, and even then I have my doubts considering the marathon ski exists and classic ski is more demanding than skate ski. I would still argue that the 2000m row is the toughest Olympic event as it involves maximal exertion on every muscle, a heart capable of pumping blood against constrained blood vessels and unbroken focus for ~7 minutes.

    I’m sure this Olympic biathletes heart rates get over 180 during competition. During one of my during one of my biathlon competitions my heart got to 220. What truly impressive is the ability to calm your heart down enough to properly shoot. They should brought Biathlon expert for this video, or at least done enough research to know that during the summer we use roller skis not roller skates. Roller skis and roller skates are made and designed very differently!!

    No, becasue they have to have light rifles you can't just have an AR-15 on their backs that would be stipid and the fact that the .22 long rifle is really light and super accurate and has very low kick so it is very good at cold temps

    Yep, when it comes to winning, the 'toughness' of a sport is really a matter of how talented the best competitor you face is. The more people who take part in a sport, the higher the likelihood of a person who is naturally gifted at the sport taking part, therefore the tougher it tends to be.

    Hold up! Im a swimmer and i know This doesn't just apply to me, we tend to be around 180 during for instance a 100m or 200m race, long distance like 1500 or 800 I would say land you somewhere in that region (165). Now with that said I'm not disputing that cross country skiing and biathlon are extremely hard both in competition and in training if not the hardest sport tied with martial arts. Now with that said swimming is brutal in its training with an of season of 3 weeks or less some athletes don't even take a break like Michael Phelps. We train for 2 hours at a time twice every day (in the water) on top of that we do dry land and gym.

    When downhill skiing is hard and taxing in the muscles it’s is not considered an endurance sport. Endurance sports are taxing to cardiovascular system over long periods of time, which is why people consider endurance sports, the cross country skiing to be “harder”.

Ive never seen a sport where athletes just fall over as soon as they cross the finish line. This sport is an absolute meat grinder. Ive never done it. I played hockey over 25 yrs. I wouldnt even begin to try biathlon.
