Creator:: Bronson, Staci M.
Abstract:: PURPOSE: We tested the hypothesis that the unsupervised, isokinetic 3- minute all-out cycling test (3MT) would be a valid and reliable way to determine end power (EP) and work done above end power (WEP). Additionally, we hypothesized that EP would successfully demarcate between heavy and severe-intensity exercise and thus represent...

Creator:: Leung, Chun (Willie)
Abstract:: In recent years, there has been an increased interest in accurately measuring physical activity levels with accelerometers. Two distinct approaches have been used to estimate physical activity levels with accelerometers are vertical axis activity counts and vector magnitude (VM). Although previous studies evaluated these two distinct approaches for individuals without...

Creator:: Arakawa, Lee
Abstract:: For athletes and training populations, the ability to track progress and determine appropriate workloads to stimulate adaptation is vital. Measures that represent a person’s aerobic fitness such as VO2 max and blood lactate concentration are often used for these purposes. While these measures can reveal a lot about a person’s...
