Methods for estimating the maximal lactate steady state in trained cyclists

Article Abstract:

This article examines the validity of using time trials to measure the average speed of cyclists while performing at their maximal lactate steady state. Findings indicate that time trials at five and forty kilometers can be used to accurately measure maximal lactate steady state cycling speeds.

Effects of acute exercise on plasma erythropoietin levels in trained runners

Article Abstract:

Different types of exercise may not affect erythropoietin concentrations in trained distance runners. Erythropoietin regulates the production of red blood cells. Researchers examined the blood of ten male runners after an hour of exercise testing, such as intermittent high intensity exercise and moderate continuous exercise. Plasma volume had apparently expanded after exercise but erythropoietin levels remained the same, suggesting a regulatory mechanism.

Noninvasive estimation of the maximal lactate steady state in trained cyclists

Article Abstract:

Estimating maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) in cyclists provides a reliable alternative to blood sampling. Speed at 5 km, as measured on a windload simulator, can be used to estimate MLSS and the heart rate at MLSS for the purpose of training. The MLSS estimate uses average cycling speed during a short burst of effort and a fraction maximal heart rate model.
