Description
Summary:To evaluate criterion validity, reliability and usefulness of a test to measure maximal aerobic power using judo-specific movements (UK ). 12 judokas performed five graded exercise tests (GETs) in 4 sessions. In sessions 1 and 2, upper-body (UB ), lower-body (LB ) and familiarization UK . GETs were randomly performed and separated by at least 48 hours. In sessions 3 and 4, test and retest UK were performed (7-day apart). For all GETs, peak oxygen consumption (V̇O ), maximal heart rate (HR ), peak blood lactate concentration ([Lapeak]), maximal aerobic intensity and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) were determined. Another group of 12 judokas performed the UK and one confirmation test (20-min after the UK ), at 105% of maximal aerobic speed (MAS) until exhaustion, to confirm if maximal responses were achieved. V̇O did not differ (P>.05) between UK (46.04±5.34 mL.kg .min ) and LB (44.78±5.98 mL.kg .min ), but was higher (P
