Illustration of the correlation between power output at VT2 and FTP. The dashed line represents linear regression (y=132.2+0.78x; adjusted R 2 =0.645). Solid dots represent "non-cyclists" and circles represent "cyclists". FTP = Functional threshold power; VT2 = Second ventilatory threshold.

Introduction: In endurance training variation of intensity is crucial, because intensity is ultimately linked to specific cellular adaptations. In cycling and other endurance sports, the assessment of physiological parameters such as maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max), lactate and ventilatory thresholds is considered the highest standard. However, in t...

COVID-19 outbreak has a profound impact on almost every aspect of life. Universal masking is recommended as a means of source control. Routinely exercising in a safe environment is an important strategy for healthy living during this crisis. As sports clubs and public spaces may serve a source of viral transmission, masking may become an integral p...
