  2. Anaerobic exercise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_exercise

    Anaerobic exercise is a type of exercise that breaks down glucose in the body without using oxygen; anaerobic means "without oxygen". [1] This type of exercise leads to a buildup of lactic acid. [1] In practical terms, this means that anaerobic exercise is more intense, but shorter in duration than aerobic exercise. [2] Fox and Haskell formula

  3. WHOOP (company) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WHOOP_(company)

    The wearable device collects data on sleep, heart rate variability, resting heart rate, and respiratory rate to create a daily recovery score for users. [15] The recovery score ranges from 0% to 100% to let users know if their body is recovered or if it needs rest. [16] It provides a suggested exertion goal based on day-to-day recovery and ...

  4. Harvard step test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvard_Step_Test

    The height of the platform is 20 inches or 51 centimetres for men and 16 inches or 41 centimetres for women. The rate of 30 steps per minute must be sustained for five minutes or until exhaustion. To ensure the right speed, a metronome is used. Exhaustion is the point at which the subject cannot maintain the stepping rate for 15 seconds.

    The minimum amount of cardio exercise you can get away with each week depends on your resting heart rate and your specific fitness goals, according to trainers.

  6. High-intensity interval training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-intensity_interval...

    The high-intensity exercise should be done at near maximum intensity. The medium exercise should be about 50% intensity. The number of repetitions and length of each depends on the exercise, but may be as little as three repetitions with just 20 seconds of intense exercise. [12] The specific exercises performed during the high-intensity ...

  7. Strength training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_training

    The rest period is defined as the time dedicated to recovery between sets and exercises. Exercise causes metabolic stress, such as the buildup of lactic acid and the depletion of adenosine triphosphate and phosphocreatine. [24] Resting 3–5 minutes between sets allows for significantly greater repetitions in the next set versus resting 1–2 ...

  8. Ventilatory threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventilatory_threshold

    As the intensity level of the activity being performed increases, breathing becomes faster; more steadily first and then more rapid as the intensity increases. When breathing surpasses normal ventilation rate, one has reached ventilatory threshold. For most people this threshold lies at exercise intensities between 50% and 75% of VO 2 max. A ...

  9. Bruce protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_protocol

    [citation needed] The heart rate formula most often used for the Bruce is the Karvonen formula (below). A more accurate formula, offered in a study published in the journal, Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, is 206.9 - (0.67 x age) which can also be used to more accurately determine VO2 Max, but may produce significantly different results.
