Abstract

The aim of this study was to assess the validity of VO2max prediction using retrograde extrapolation in a breath-by-breath (BxB) gas measurement system. A retrospective study was performed, analysing 31 incremental and maximal stress tests carried out in our laboratory, corresponding to male subjects who practised different sporting activities (age: 29.9 ± 14.45 years; height: 174.4 ± 6.5 cm; weight: 71.4 ± 7.2 kg). A linear regression of the first minute of recovery was used to obtain extrapolated VO2max data and, subsequently, a correction equation was applied that provided predicted VO2max values. Given the variability of data in BxB measurement systems, extrapolated values can be expected to vary significantly from those actually measured, but differences disappeared in the predicted values, which were almost identical to those measured. This method enables stress tests to be performed without having to record gas measurements until the end. It could be useful for the validation of specific field tests, measuring VO2 trackside after the test, during recovery.
