Implication

Standard percentages may miss lactate thresholds in sedentary women; hypothesis-generating for individualized targets.

Population

33 sedentary women, mean age 32.5 +/- 3.9 years, mean height 164.2 +/- 5.0 cm, mean weight 67.6 +/- 13.9 kg.

Intervention

VO2/LT treadmill test using a level running protocol to examine 60%-95% of maximal heart rate (HR max), heart rate reserve (HRR), and VO2peak as exercise training intensities.

Outcome

Heart rate and VO2 observed at the lactate threshold (LT) and fixed blood lactate concentrations of 2.0, 2.5, and 4.0 mM.surrogate

Exercise prescriptions based solely on uniform percentages of maximal heart rate, heart rate reserve, or VO2peak may not accurately target desired lactate thresholds in sedentary women.
