Abstrakt: The article reports on research which was conducted to investigate the off-ice fitness profiles of 204 elite female ice hockey players from 13 countries. Researchers found that athletes from countries with the best international records weighed more, had less body fat and greater lower body muscular power and upper body strength than less successful players and that athletes from the senior-level age group weighed more and had higher scores for lower body power, pull-ups, and aerobic capacity.
