Comparison of Maximal Aerobic Speed as Assessed with Laboratory and Field Measurements in Moderately Trained Subjects

Abstract: In order to compare the Maximal Aerobic Speed (MAS) evaluated with different methods, eleven male physical education students (22.2 +/- 3.0 years) were submitted to a maximal treadmill protocol and to the Université de Montréal Track Test (UMTT). Four methods were used to calculate MAS. After treadmill measurement of VO2max, MAS was calculated (MAS_calc) by the following formula: MAS_calc = (VO2max - 0.083)/C, where VO2max is the maximal oxygen uptake (ml.kg-1.s-1) and C the energy cost of running (ml.kg-1.m-1… Show more

“…The velocity at the last completed stage was increased by 0.5 km h -1 if the subject was able to run a half stage and was assumed to represent the MAS. This method is consistent with previous publications (Léger and Boucher 1980;Berthoin et al 1996) demonstrating that this increment provides an accurate estimation of the velocity associated with VO 2 max. The VO 2 peak was calculated as the highest two successive 15-s periods achieved during the graded test.…”

“…The initial speed was 12 km h -1 and this was increased by 1 km h -1 every minute. This method is in accordance with previous publications (Berthoin et al 1996;Lacour et al 1991). The velocity at the last and complete stage was considered as MAV.…”
