How to individualize physiological responses during running training

Different percentages with respect to the speed associated with maximum oxygen consumption can be used to individualize physiological responses during running training. In addition, the main protocols that can be used to evaluate the athlete will be described, including continuous incremental ramp tests or discontinuous incremental square wave tests.

Comparing results and studies

Different test protocols may influence the measurement of the speed associated with maximum oxygen consumption. The possible differences between the tests must be taken into account when choosing the protocol to be used in evaluating the athlete. The results of several studies comparing different protocols will be presented.

How to choose the right protocol to use

The differences in the protocols are also evident in different populations of athletes (e.g. runners or soccer players). The differences between the tests, however, change depending on the investigated population and the state of fitness. The information processed will be used in choosing the evaluation protocol for different populations of athletes.

Cardio-respiratory and metabolic assessment

A different kinetics of oxygen consumption at the submaximal level and the athlete's fitness status may influence the differences between protocols, suggesting possible practical applications in the choice of the test for cardio-respiratory and metabolic evaluation.
