  2. Exercise intensity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exercise_intensity

    There is a direct linear relationship between intensity of aerobic exercise and VO 2. Our maximum intensity is a reflection of our maximal oxygen consumption (VO 2 max). Such a measurement represents a cardiovascular fitness level. [3] VO 2 is measured in METs (mL/kg/min). One MET, which is equal to 3.5 mL/kg per minute, is considered to be the ...

  3. vVO2max - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VVO2max

    In an incremental exercise test, it is the first speed at which any increase in exercise intensity fails to elicit an increase in oxygen consumption. The vV̇O 2 max of world class middle- and long-distance runners may exceed 24 km/h or 2:30/km pace ( 15 mph or about 4:00/mile), making this speed slightly comparable to 3000 m race pace.

  4. Inverse-square law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse-square_law

    Since the surface area of a sphere of radius r is A = 4πr 2, the intensity I (power per unit area) of radiation at distance r is = =. The energy or intensity decreases (divided by 4) as the distance r is doubled; if measured in dB would decrease by 6.02 dB per doubling of distance. When referring to measurements of power quantities, a ratio ...

  5. Ventilatory threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventilatory_threshold

    As the intensity level of the activity being performed increases, breathing becomes faster; more steadily first and then more rapid as the intensity increases. When breathing surpasses normal ventilation rate, one has reached ventilatory threshold. For most people this threshold lies at exercise intensities between 50% and 75% of VO 2 max. A ...

  6. Peak power output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_power_output

    Peak power output (PPO), also known as "peak work rate" is a common measure of exercise intensity.For example, researchers may ask subjects to complete an incremental exercise test where VO 2 max is measured while the person cycles at increasingly difficult power generation levels as measured by a cycle ergometer.

  7. Running economy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_economy

    Running economy (RE) a complex, multifactorial concept that represents the sum of metabolic, cardiorespiratory, biomechanical and neuromuscular efficiency during running. [1]: 33 [2] [3] Oxygen consumption (VO 2) is the most commonly used method for measuring running economy, as the exchange of gases in the body, specifically oxygen and carbon dioxide, closely reflects energy metabolism.

  9. Stevens's power law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevens's_power_law

    It is often considered to supersede the Weber–Fechner law, which is based on a logarithmic relationship between stimulus and sensation, because the power law describes a wider range of sensory comparisons, down to zero intensity. [1] The theory is named after psychophysicist Stanley Smith Stevens (1906–1973).
