Abstract

require estimation of maximal values from submaximal measurements, introducing an added error into calculations. Variables such as Vlso and Vlg0 are considered inadequate due to the variability in heart rates at low exercise intensities. Some workers are now relating submaximal to maximal values, such as V2#HRmaX, HRI&Rma, and Lal&amax. This increases the accuracy over the submaximal value alone, but it does necessitate the use of a maximal exercise test. To date, most tests have examined aerobic capacity because anaerobic capacity is more difficult to measure. The measurements of maximum accumulated oxygen deficit (MAOD), presented by Eaton et al. (1995) may provide an indication of anaerobic capacity. However, this measurement requires a rapid acceleration, maximal speed treadmill run.
