Prescribing the frequency, duration, or volume of training is simple as these factors can be
altered by manipulating the number of exercise sessions per week, the duration of each …

The maximum rate of O2 uptake (ie, V̇o2max), as measured during large muscle mass
exercise such as cycling or running, is widely considered to be the gold standard …

Muscular exercise requires transitions to and from metabolic rates often exceeding an order
of magnitude above resting and places prodigious demands on the oxidative machinery and …

Despite limited scientific evidence supporting their effectiveness, warm-up routines prior to
exercise are a well-accepted practice. The majority of the effects of warm up have been …

While warm up is considered to be essential for optimum performance, there is little scientific
evidence supporting its effectiveness in many situations. As a result, warm-up procedures …

During high-intensity submaximal exercise, muscle fatigue and decreased efficiency are
intertwined closely, and each contributes to exercise intolerance. Fatigue and muscle …

The maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) is defined as the highest blood lactate
concentration (MLSSc) and work load (MLSSw) that can be maintained over time without a …

We tested the hypothesis that the asymptote of the hyperbolic relationship between work
rate and time to exhaustion during muscular exercise, the “critical power”(CP), represents …

The quantification of maximum oxygen uptake (V̇o2 max), a parameter characterizing the
effective integration of the neural, cardiopulmonary, and metabolic systems, requires oxygen …

The incremental or ramp exercise test to the limit of tolerance has become a popular test for
determination of maximal O 2 uptake (̇ VO _\rm 2max). However, many subjects do not …
