Professional cycle racing is one of the most demanding of all sports combining extremes of
exercise duration, intensity and frequency. Riders are required to perform on a variety of …

The aim of this pilot study was to examine whether differences existed in spinal kinematics
and trunk muscle activity in cyclists with and without non-specific chronic low back pain …

Fully updated, revised and consolidated into one single volume, the fourth edition of
Kinanthropometry and Exercise Physiology offers the best theoretically contextualised …

This study investigated the effects of preferred and non-preferred warm-up music listening
conditions on subsequent exercise performance. A total of 12 physically active male and …

The heart rate performance curve (HRPC) has been shown to be nonlinearly related to work
load. This phenomenon has been used to determine a defection point and to be related to …

We present a personalized approach for frequent fitness monitoring in road cycling solely
relying on sensor data collected during bike rides and without the need for maximal effort …

The aim of the present investigation was to compare the accuracy of the heart-rate (HR)
deflection point (HR DP) and the second HR variability threshold (HRV Th2) to predict …
