Abstract:Threshold determination for improving training and sports performance is important for researchers and trainers, who currently use different methods for determining lactate, ventilatory or muscle oxygenation (SmO2) thresholds. Our study aimed to compare the identification of the intensity at the first and second thresholds using lactate and SmO2 data by different mathematical methods in different muscles during a graded cycling test. Twenty-six cyclists (15 males and 11 females; 23 ±6 years, 1.71 ±0.09 m, 64.3… Show more
