Prediction of maximal oxygen uptake in sedentary males from a perceptually regulated, sub-maximal graded exercise test

Article Abstract:

A study to assess the validity of predicting the maximal oxygen uptake (V[O.sub.2max]) of sedentary men from sub-maximal V[O.sub.2] values obtained from a perceptually regulated exercise test is conducted. Findings suggest that a sub-maximal, perceptually guided graded test provides acceptable estimates of V[O.sub.2max] in young to middle-aged sedentary males.

Factors associated with physical activity referral uptake and participation

Article Abstract:

A study to examine the scheme and individual participant characteristics in relation to access, uptake, and participation in physical activity (PARS) is conducted. Findings based on binary logistic regression analysis reveal that only primary referral reasons associated with the PARS coordinator making contact with the participants.
