Estimation of VO2 Max: A Comparative Analysis of Five Exercise Tests.
Zwiren, Linda D.; And Others
Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, v62 n1 p73-78 Mar 1991
Thirty-eight healthy females measured maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) on the cycle ergometer and treadmill to compare five exercise tests (run, walk, step, and two tests using heart-rate response on the bicycle ergometer) in predicting VO2max. Results indicate that walk and run tests are satisfactory predictors of VO2max in 30- to 39-year-old females. (SM)
