Implication

Deflection point repeatability supports further study as a training marker; leaves open prospective validation against performance outcomes.

Structured PICO

Population

290 male cyclists

Intervention

Incremental cycling test protocol using a wind-load cycling simulator with time-based increments in cadence

Outcome

Power output/heart rate (PO/HR) relationship and identification of the deflection pointsurrogate

The deflection point in the power output/heart rate relationship during cycling is a repeatable physiological phenomenon rather than a protocol-dependent artifact.
