Peak oxygen uptake measured during a perceptually-regulated exercise test is reliable in community-based manual wheelchair users

Abstract

This study compares test-retest reliability and peak exercise responses from ramp-incremented (RAMP) and maximal perceptually-regulated (PRETmax) exercise tests during arm crank exercise in individuals reliant on manual wheelchair propulsion (MWP). Ten untrained participants completed four trials over 2-weeks (two RAMP (0-40 W + 5-10 W · min-1) trials and two PRETmax. PRETmax consisted of five, 2-min stages performed at Ratings of Perceived …
