Comparison of maximal oxygen uptake by indirect calculation of two step experiments and direct test / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

0.05). The average and maximal heart rates of subjects in bench stepping during exercise were higher than those in home stepping (P 0.05), however, the correlation between the direct calculation and home stepping was high (r=0.46, P 0.05).③The correlation between two step experiments for male students was high (r=0.73, P 0.05), however, the difference for female students was significant (P 0.05). CONCLUSION: Two indirect test protocols need further improvements, but home step is more appropriate for a large sample of constitution assessment by comparison of measurement efficiency and precision.
