Skeletal muscle oxygenation during cycling

Phase 1
Conditions
Healthy person
Registration Number
JPRN-UMIN000026189
Lead Sponsor
Exercise and Sports Physiology, Graduate School of Medicine, Nagoya University
Brief Summary

At 100%VT work load, 90rpm should be harder to pedal, while 40rpm should be similar burden as popular used cadence (50 - 60 rpm) although the exerted muscle force is high. 90rpm is less energetically efficient and should compromise skeletal muscle oxygenation.
