Supports Conconi test use for youth threshold assessment; extends adult reliability data but leaves open prospective validation.
Cross-Sectional (n=274)
Effect estimate: r=0.990 (outdoors) and r=0.996 (indoors)
The Conconi test is a highly reliable field test for determining anaerobic threshold in children and adolescents.
Ballarín et al. (1989) conducted a cross-sectional in Healthy (n=274). Conconi Test was evaluated on Test-retest correlation coefficient for deflection speed (Sd) (r=0.990 (outdoors) and r=0.996 (indoors)). The Conconi test demonstrated high test-retest reliability for deflection speed in healthy children and adolescents, with correlation coefficients of 0.990 outdoors and 0.996 indoors.
