Description
Objectives: This study intended to assess the test-retest reliability of an incremental test performed on a slide board (SB) and compare it with a cycling protocol to determine aerobic indexes in skaters. Design: Descriptive validity study. Method: Ten recreational inline skaters (eight male and two female) were tested. Participants performed two incremental tests on SB and a cycling incremental test. The intensity of SB test was determined by cadence, starting at 30 push-offs/min and increasing by three push-offs/min each minute, until volitional exhaustion. Maximal and submaximal (related to the heart rate deflection point; HRDP) values of oxygen uptake (VO 2 ), pulmonary ventilation ...
