Comparing the reliability of muscle oxygen saturation with common performance and physiological markers across cycling exercise intensity

Introduction: Wearable near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measurements of muscle oxygen saturation (SmO 2) demonstrated good test–retest reliability at rest. We hypothesized SmO 2 measured with the Moxy monitor at the vastus lateralis (VL) would demonstrate good reliability across intensities. For…
