Variability of Aerobic Performance in the Laboratory and Its Physiologic Correlates

Kuipers, H., Verstappen, F., Keizer, H., Geurten, P., van Kranenburg, G.·1985·International Journal of Sports Medicine

Abstract

To study the physiologic basis of variability of physical performance in the laboratory, ten male subjects were studied once a week, during a 9-12 month period. Previously, the reference maximal work load attained (Wref) was determined in each subject. The test protocol of the actual study was based on the individual Wref and started at 70% Wref for 5 min whereupon the work load was increased by 5% Wref every 2.5 min to exhaustion. The maximal work load attained (Wmax) was considered as the test performance. Heart rate, respiratory variables, oxygen uptake (VO2), and blood lactate concentration were determined at each work load. The rate of perceived exertion during submaximal and maximal work was also scored. In all subjects, Wmax and VO2max varied randomly, while the coefficient of variation in VO2max (4.20% - 11.35%) exceeded that in Wmax (2.95%-6.83%). No seasonal influences on VO2 max and Wmax were observed. In all subjects the physiologic variables, when plotted as a function of external work load, were shifted to the right with higher Wmax values and to the left with lower Wmax values. With lower Wmax values, the rate of perceived exertion during submaximal work tended to increase. The results suggest that the magnitude of physiologic responses to exercise is related to relative work load and that variability of physical performance is related to changes in gross mechanical efficiency.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
