노인의 전신지구력 평가를 위한 고정식 자전거와 트레드밀의 비교

Various exercise modes are used in the fields including fitness program and cardiac rehabilitation programs. An exercise training intensity is prescribed as a percentage of an individual`s maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max). The appropriate identification of anaerobic threshold (AT) may be important for safe and effective exercise prescription. Therefore, we investigated whether there was a difference in AT when older individuals used different exercise modes. Ten subjects completed a maximal exercise testing on both cycle ergometer and treadmill. were much higher than those of cycle ergometer. There was no significant difference in HRmax, HRAT and VEmax, VEAT across exercise Thus, these results have important implications for older adults who use AT for exercise prescription. Exercise modes must be considered to prescribe exercise intensity because there was a difference among exercise machines.
