The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two forms of periodization (linear and double undulating) in strength training on specific performance in prepubescent speed skaters. Twelve (12) skaters in the junior categories, aged 9.5 years (Tanner stage 1), members of the Speed Cats training group, with an average sporting age of 1.5 years, from the city of Villavicencio, Colombia. The participants were randomly assigned to each of the two groups as follows: the undulating periodization group (n=5) and the linear periodization group (n=7). The results of the study suggest that for the static start test in the variables: speed and acceleration (0-5 and 5-10 meters), right and left stride distance, and right stride speed, the greatest percentage gain occurred in undulating periodization. Linear periodization generated greater gains in the variable left step speed. The results obtained after statistical analysis are conclusive, demonstrating that the undulating periodization group was more effective than the linear periodization group. The intervention proposal designed for this study was optimal, as none of the athletes who participated in the research suffered injuries during or after the intervention.
