Relationship among critical velocity, anaerobic threshold, VO2max parameters, anaerobic work capacity and sub-maximal cost of O2
The purposes of the study were to compare and correlate the running velocities associated with the maximal oxygen consumption (Vmax), anaerobic threshold (LL), ventilatory threshold (LV), critical velocity (CV), anaerobic work capacity (AWC) and oxygen cost during sub-maximal exercise (C). METHODS:...

| Resumo: | The purposes of the study were to compare and correlate the running velocities associated with the maximal oxygen consumption (Vmax), anaerobic threshold (LL), ventilatory threshold (LV), critical velocity (CV), anaerobic work capacity (AWC) and oxygen cost during sub-maximal exercise (C). METHODS: Eight male physically active subjects (20.8±1.6 years; 74.3±14.9 kg), performed the following tests: 1) 500m and 3km time trial (Vm500 and Vm3km); 2) Incremental test on treadmill for of LL, LV, VO2max and Vmax identification; 3) sustained running at Vmax (Tmax) and identification of the time to VO2max and time at VO2max. The CV and AWC were obtained from linear regression (distance x time on 500m and 3km test). The C was determined as a ratio between sub-maximal running velocity and its VO2. RESULTS: A high correlation was verified for Vm3km and Vmax (r=0.83), Vm3km and VC (r=0.98), Vm500 and VC (r=0.90), Vm500 and Vm3km (r=0.92), and between Vm500 and Time to VO2max (r=0.69). No differences were observed between LL and LV (178.7±20.0 e 180.7±21.8m.min –1) (p>0.05). Also a high correlation between LL and Vmax¬ (r=0.91), CV (r=0.96), and Vm3km (r=0.96) were verified. The AWC was negatively correlated to running economy for those with higher aerobic capacity. CONCLUSION: The CV, AWC, Vm500 an Vm3km can be used for exercise evaluation and training prescription. Due the correlation with the C, the AWC may be an indicative of mechanical inefficiency. |
