摘要:One of the numerous methods for determining the upper limit of individual aerobic metabolism is the Conconi test. It is a simple, non blood-based test, which can give an indication of an athlete's condition or state of training. It is an extremely reliable and powerful predictor of performance in an aerobic exercise. It is based on the correlation between the anaerobic threshold and a deflection point in the heart rate during an incremental exercise test. The reason why some authors have questioned the validity of the concept is the fact that no uniform HR response could be expected from all individuals during incremental exercise. Although physiological mechanisms behind the heart rate deflection point phenomena have still not fully been analyzed and there are still some open questions regarding this method being used to determine the anaerobic threshold non-invasively, in practice it is an easy-to-apply and accurate method to use on subjects presenting a heart rate deflection.
