Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if rating of perceived exertion (RPE) during non-weight-bearing exercise is influenced by gestational age and exercise training. We conducted a randomized controlled trial to examine the influence of gestational age and exercise training (three to fourtimes per week for 25-40 minutes at 50%-70% of heart rate reserve) on RPE during an exhaustive cycling exercise test. We observed no influence of gestational age, or exercise training status on RPE responses to non-weight-bearing exercise during pregnancy. Trial registration number: NCT02948439. Novelty: Gestational age and/or exercise training does not influence rate of perceived exertion during non-weight-bearing exercise.
