ABSTRACT

Crisp AH, Verlengia R, Sindorf MAG, Germano MD, Cesar MC, Lopes, CR. Time to Exhaustion at VO2 Max Velocity in Basketball and Soccer Athletes. JEPonline 2013;16(3):82-91. The purpose of study was to compare the maximum distance traveled (Dmax) and time to exhaustion (Tlim) at the minimal velocity that elicits VO2 max (vVO2 max) in basketball and soccer athletes. Twenty-six basketball and 27 soccer players performed a maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPETmax) to determine maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max), the first ventilatory threshold (VT1), velocity of VT1 (vVT1) and vVO2 max, the time to exhaustion at vVO2 max to determine Tlim and Dmax, and the kinetics of blood lactate removal at pre, 0 (immediate), 3, 6, 9, 15, and 20 min after time to exhaustion at vVO2 max test. The findings indicate that the variables of CPETmax were significantly superior (P ................
