Georg Neumann (sports medicine specialist)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Georg Neumann (born June 13, 1938 in Gablonz ) is a German sports doctor and university lecturer .

Life

Georg Neumann was born in Gablonz , Bohemia , and passed his Abitur at the children's and youth sports school in Leipzig . He studied human medicine in Leipzig and completed his doctoral thesis in 1961 (subject: "Cardiac volumes and oxygen pulses in people with average performance, athletes and heart patients"). Neumann worked as an assistant doctor and came to the German University of Physical Culture (DHfK) in 1964 . After becoming a specialist in sports medicine in 1967, he took up a position at the Research Institute for Physical Culture and Sport (FKS) after it was founded in 1969. In 1974 he completed his PhD B (subject: "The value of selected parameters of the cardiovascular and metabolic systems for complex performance diagnostics and for controlling and regulating the training load in endurance sports"). In 1979 he took up a professorship.

After the fall of the Berlin Wall, Neumann was taken over by the FKS successor organization, the Institute for Applied Training Science (IAT), and held the chair for sports medicine and headed the sports medicine department until 2003. Among other things, he did research in the triathlon- related subject areas. From 1990 to 2008 Neumann was also a doctor and medical advisor to the German Triathlon Union (DTU). He took over the office of chairman of the scientific advisory board at the DTU. Together with his wife Anni, he was anti-doping inspector for the DTU until 2008 and in 2010 was awarded the silver badge of honor by the German Triathlon Union for his fight against doping. At the Federal Institute for Sports Science (BISp) Neumann was part of the “Medicine and Biology” committee.

During his time at the DHfK and the FKS, he was involved in examinations of the cardiovascular system and metabolism during exercise, on the basics of endurance training, "Possibilities of sports medicine in accelerating recovery to increase performance", training in endurance disciplines, the anaerobic Metabolism, oxygen uptake involved in endurance exercise and for training in negative pressure chambers.

In the report “Head down and through”, which was published in March 1992 in Spiegel , Neumann is quoted with reference to the protocol of a “control consultation” with the words, “Anabolic steroids would have turned out to be 'special for cross-country skiers in combination with vitamins and high-carbohydrate food proven to be favorable '". Neumann also appears in the book "Doping in der DDR" by Giselher Spitzer as a VCS employee in connection with doping.

Together with Arndt Pfützner and Anneliese Berbalk , Neumann was the author of the work “Optimized Endurance Training”, which was published in several editions. In 1991 his book “Endurance Load: A Sports Medicine Advice” was published, in 1996 he brought out the book “Nutrition in Sport”, which was later published in further editions. Together with Kuno Hottenrott he published the books “Methodology of Endurance Training” and “Training Science: a Textbook in 14 lessons ”.
