Purpose This study longitudinally examined the interchangeable use of critical power (CP), the maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) and the respiratory compensation point (RCP) (i.e., whole-body thresholds), and breakpoints in muscle deoxygenation (m[HHb]BP) and muscle activity (iEMGBP) (i.e., local thresholds). Methods Twenty-one participants were ...

Introduction: The purpose was to investigate the effect the recovery intensity domain on W' reconstitution. We used the W'BAL model as a framework and tested its predictive capabilities (W'PRED) across the different intensity domains. Methods: Twelve young men (51.7 ± 5.9 mL•kg•min) completed a ramp incremental test, three to five constant power ou...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of different work and recovery characteristics on the W' reconstitution and to test the predictive capabilities of the W'BAL model. Eleven male participants (22 ± 3 yr, 55 ± 4 mL·kg⋅min) completed three to five constant work rate tests to determine CP and W'. Subsequently, subjects performed 12 experiment...

The interchangeable use of whole-body exercise thresholds and breakpoints (BP) in the local oxygenation response, as measured via near-infrared spectroscopy, has recently been questioned in scientific literature. Therefore, the present study aimed to longitudinally investigate the interrelationship of four commonly used exercise thresholds: critica...

We tested the hypothesis that critical intensity in cycling can be determined from a single delta blood lactate in the third minute of a submaximal cycle ergometer trial. Fourteen healthy young men performed four to six constant-power-output trials on a cycle ergometer to the limit of tolerance. Critical intensity was calculated via a linear model ...

Purpose The aim of this project was to study the impact of pedal rate on breakpoints in muscle oxygenation (deoxy[Hb + Mb] and total[Hb + Mb]) and activation (iEMG and MPF) at high intensities during ramp exercise.MethodsTwelve physically active students performed incremental ramp exercises at 60 rpm, starting either at 50 or 80 W (i.e., 60rpm50 an...
