DOI: 10.1007/s00421-018-3960-6
Abstract: PurposeBadminton is characterized by bouts of high intensity interspersed by short recovery periods. Aerobic assessment via indirect calorimetry is impractical on court because of the encumbrance of portable metabolic devices. When the relationship between heart… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00421-020-04559-3
Abstract: Introduction Current methods (plateau/secondary criteria) to determine maximal oxygen consumption ( $$ {\dot{\text{V}}} $$ V ˙ O 2max ) are inconsistently achieved leading some to suggest the use of a verification phase (VP) to confirm… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11332-020-00634-6
Abstract: Background Measurement of anaerobic capacity through estimating the glycolytic and phosphagen energy pathways (AC [La]+PCr ) has been considered a time-efficient, valid, and reproducible method, however, the sensitivity of this protocol to discriminate training levels… read more here.
