Effects of Initial Performance, Gross Efficiency and O2peak Characteristics on Subsequent Adaptations to Endurance Training in Competitive Cyclists [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 The present study investigated the effects of initial levels of cycling performance, peak oxygen uptake (O2peak) and gross efficiency (GE) on the subsequent adaptations of these variables and their relationship following high-intensity training (HIT ...

Inverse Relationship between V˙O2max and Gross Efficiency [PDF]
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2012 The aim of this study was to identify if an inverse relationship exists between Gross Efficiency (GE) and V˙O2max in trained cyclists. In Experiment 1, 14 trained cyclist's GE and V˙O2max were recorded at 5 different phases of a cycling 'self-coached' season using an incremental laboratory test.

Reliability of Cycling Gross Efficiency Using the Douglas Bag Method [PDF]
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2012 The aim of this study was to establish the reliability of gross efficiency (GE) measurement (the ratio of mechanical power input to metabolic power output, expressed as a percentage) using the Douglas bag method.The experiment was conducted in two parts.

The Effects of Training on Gross Efficiency in Cycling: A Review [PDF]
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2009 There has been much debate in the recent scientific literature regarding the possible ability to increase gross efficiency in cycling via training. Using cross-sectional study designs, researchers have demonstrated no significant differences in gross efficiency between trained and untrained cyclists.

Remote Sensing, 2020 Light use efficiency (LUE), which characterizes the efficiency with which vegetation converts captured/absorbed radiation into organic dry matter through photosynthesis, is a key parameter for estimating vegetation gross primary productivity (GPP ...

The between and within day variation in gross efficiency. [PDF]
Eur J Appl Physiol, 2010 Before the influence of divergent factors on gross efficiency (GE) [the ratio of mechanical power output (PO) to metabolic power input (PI)] can be assessed, the variation in GE between days, i.e. the test-retest reliability, and the within day variation needs to be known.

Effects of familiarization on reliability of muscle-activation and gross efficiency in adolescents and adults [PDF]
Cogent Medicine, 2016 We investigated the effects of familiarization on the reliability of gross efficiency (GE) and lower-limb electromyography (EMG-rms) of adults and adolescents. We also evaluated the relationship between inter-test differences in GE and EMG-rms. Nine adult and nine adolescent cyclists performed three 10-min cycling tests at 50% of peak power output ...

PREDICTION OF GROSS FEED EFFICIENCY IN ITALIAN HOLSTEIN FRIESIAN BULLS [PDF]
Poljoprivreda, 2015 The aim of this study was to predict gross feed efficiency of Italian Holstein Friesian bulls selected for production, functional and type traits. A total of 12,238 bulls, from the April 2015 genetic evaluation, were used.

The Use of Gross Efficiency Coefficients in Cyclists’ Endurance Tests [PDF]
Central European Journal of Sport Sciences and Medicine, 2015 The efficiency of energy conversion of aerobic metabolism to external work is of great importance to sports exercise. Despite this fact, gross efficiency (GE) is not commonly used as a parameter in the assessment of cyclists’ exercise ability.

The relationship between cadence, pedalling technique and gross efficiency in cycling [PDF]
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2011 Technique and energy saving are two variables often considered as important for performance in cycling and related to each other. Theoretically, excellent pedalling technique should give high gross efficiency (GE). The purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between pedalling technique and GE. 10 well-trained cyclists were measured
