Effects of Gender on Oxygen Saturation of Thigh Muscles during Maximal Treadmill Exercise Testing [PDF]

open access: yesSport Mont, 2021
Currently, muscle activity can be assessed by oxygen muscle saturation (SmO2) measured with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), which is a non-invasive technique that can be used in training planning and control, but more needs to be known about it.
