Q

What is the purpose of YMCA bike ergometer lab?

A

A cycle ergometer submax protocol for women and men was developed in 1989 (Goldings, Meyers, and sinning). This submaximal test uses 3 to 4 consecutive stages/workloads on the cycle ergometer with the intent to elevate heart rate to 110 bpm and 85% of one’s age-predicted HRmax for at least 2 consecutive workloads. The ensuing results are used to predict VO2max based on the assumption that HR and oxygen consumption are linear f(x) of work rate.

Q

How is VO2 max determined from lab 5?

A

determine the M of HR vs workload relationship by plotting steady state HRs to last 2 workloads and connect these 2 data points with straight edge, extending the line so that it intersects the predicted HRmax line.
