VO2 Max/Lactate Profile Tests

[steve.trangmar]

Dear Athletes,

We are currently advertising for cyclists to take part in a cycling project to be run at Brunel University, Uxbridge.

You would be required to visit the labs on five occasions for 1-2 hours (visits 1-3) and a half day (visits 4-5). The research project is investigating the effects of heat and dehydration on cycling performance and fatigue, with notable attention towards the responses of the brain under these conditions.

You will receive a VO2max/HR thresholds test, training experience in a hot environment, your individual sweat rate and additional financial compensation for your time.

Requirements include;
• Males
• Aged 18-35 years
• Good training history of cycling/triathlon
• Be available from the 3rd September, with Visit 4 occurring on one of the 25th, 26th, 27th or 28th of September.

Although these are lab based sessions, it is a good opportunity to get some free physiological data (VO2/HR, lactate, power outputs etc) and some decent training time in the heat.

If you are interested in taking part, please contact Steve at steven.trangmar@brunel.ac.uk

N.B. Apologies for the requirements but we unfortunately have to be strict with our inclusion criteria. Sorry.

Is this sports science?
