During incremental aerobic exercise, there are thresholds where blood lactate levels begin to rise, and CO 2 production increases rapidly relative to O 2 uptake. The former threshold is termed the ...

The popular 80/20 approach to training promotes doing 80 per cent of your training at an easy effort and 20 per cent hard.

Design: 20 subjects each underwent four LMTs on a cycle ergometer. The LMT consisted of a first part (Conconi test) to induce lactate accumulation and a second part (incremental protocol) with stages ...

According to the study, waist circumference, body weight, and fat levels decrease linearly with increased durations of aerobic exercise. The key threshold? At least 150 minutes of moderate to ...
