Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between exercise capacity and HRET (Constant heart rate exercise test) which was the new evaluation method for exercise work by controlling pedaling torque to a constant heart rate level during exercise.<br>Six healthy male and six female subjects who had no history of bone and joint injury underwent HRET and the symptom limited exercise test (CPX). They pedaled 18 minutes at 50 cadences per minute during HRET, and mechanical work was measured from 6 minute to 18 minute. PeakVO2 was measured during CPX. The analysis of Spearman correlation between HRW and peakVO2 indicated a significant correlation between HRW and peakVO2 (r = 0.80, p < 0.01).<br>The results suggest that HRET may reflect exercise tolerance and is clinically applicable to frequent assessment without any volitional fatigue.
