Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to analyze changes in heart rate recovery (HRR) and lactate recovery rate (LRR) after the graded maximal exercise test in physically active male college students, and to investigate the relationship between three factors (V· O₂max, HRR, and LRR) closely related to exercise performance.BR Method: The subjects (22 males) conducted a one-way repeated measures ANOVA to analyze changes in heart rate recovery and lactate recovery rate according to the graded maximal exercise test, and Bonferroni correction was applied for multiple comparisons. In addition, the relationship between the three factors was verified by the Pearson correlation coefficient.BR Results: Heart rate recovery (9.18%, p.001) and lactate recovery rate (14.14%, p.01) showed the most significant recovery patterns 1 minute after the exercise load test. Maximum oxygen uptake (V· O₂max) did not appear to correlate with heart rate and lactate recovery rate, but heart rate recovery and lactate recovery rate showed a positive correlation (p.05).BR Conclusion: Monitoring heart rate recovery and lactate recovery rate is suggested as essential for developing programs to control exercise intensity parameters.
