Gender and Contraction Mode on Perceived Exertion

International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2010
The purpose of this study was to examine perceived exertion responses during concentric and eccentric elbow flexor contractions between young adult men and women. Thirty healthy young adults participated in two experimental sessions. During the first session, subjects performed five concentric isokinetic maximal voluntary contractions (MVC) of elbow ...

Perceived Exertion of Professional Hockey Players

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1979
18 professional hockey players were tested on the treadmill with a modified Balke procedure and also for maximum isokinetic strength with the Cybex II instrument. Immediately after each test the subject completed the Borg Scale of Perceived Exertion. The treadmill effort was perceived as being “somewhat hard work” while the maximum strength effort was ...

Clinical applications of perceived exertion

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1982
The purpose of this paper is to review those studies related to the clinical applications of perceived exertion. The Borg Scale has been used most widely to evaluate the subjective response of patients during graded exercise tests. More recently, ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) have been shown to be an accurate predictor of aerobic capacity ...

Ratings of perceived exertion at the anaerobic threshold

Ergonomics, 1981
To determine ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) at the anaerobic threshold (AT), 13 men and 17 women, 21 to 37 years of age. performed a progressive, load-incremented bicycle ergometer stress test during which physiological measurements and RPE were obtained every 30s. The mean (± SD) AT expressed as a percentage of the maximal oxygen uptake was 60.1 ±

Psychophysical bases of perceived exertion

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1982
There is a great demand for perceptual effort ratings in order to better understand man at work. Such ratings are important complements to behavioral and physiological measurements of physical performance and work capacity. This is true for both theoretical analysis and application in medicine, human factors, and sports.

Perceived exertion and the preferred cycling cadence

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1998
To determine whether an association exists between peripheral comfort level, as reflected by differentiated RPE measures, and the preferred cadences of subjects who differed in cycling experience and fitness level.Twelve experienced cyclists (C), ten runners (R), and ten less-trained noncyclists (LT), all of whom were male, pedaled at three power ...

Sensory cues for perceived exertion

Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 1981
A variety of physiological responses, classified as local or central factors, have been suggested as providing the primary input for perception of effort during exercise. The potency of these responses as perceptual cues, however, has seldom been addressed in terms of relevant modifying variables such as exercise intensity, exercise duration, exercise ...

Perceived Exertion and Stimulus Intensity Modulation

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1977
Perceptual augmentation and reduction were considered contrasting styles of Stimulus Intensity Modulation. Differences in perceived exertion between augmenters and reducers were determined for three cycle ergometer work loads. Subjects were 20 males having similar physiological characteristics.

Movement and Time: Exertion and Perceived Duration

Nursing Science Quarterly, 1991
This study examined differences in consciousness indexes (perceived duration of time) at different levels of physical exertion within the framework of Newman's model of health and with emphasis on Prigogine's theory of dissipative structures. The sample consisted of 100 volunteers participating in regular aerobic exercise.

The Role of the Rating-of-Perceived-Exertion Template in Pacing

International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 2018
The rating-of-perceived-exertion (RPE) template is thought to regulate pacing and has been shown to be very robust in different circumstances. Purpose: The primary purpose was to investigate whether the RPE template can be manipulated by changing the race distance during the course of a time trial.
