Self‐paced maximal testing methods may be able to exploit central mediation of function‐limiting fatigue and therefore have potential to generate more valid estimates of peak oxygen uptake. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of a new method for self‐paced peak performance testing on treadmills and to compare peak and submaximal performance outcomes with those obtained using a non‐self‐paced (‘computer‐paced’) method employing predetermined speed and slope profiles.
