The development of an evidenced-based submaximal cycle test designed to monitor and predict cycling performance : the Lamberts and Lambert submaximal cycle test (LSCT)
Abstract
dc:description.abstractThe HIMS test, which consists of controlled exercise at increasing workloads, has been developed to monitor changes in training status and accumulative fatigue in athletes. As the workload can influence the day-to-day variation in heart rate, the exercise intensity which is associated with the highest sensitivity needs to be established with the goal of refining the interpretability of these heart rate measurements. The aim of the study was to determine the within subject day-to-day variation of submaximal and recovery heart rate in subjects who reached different exercise intensities.
