Cadence Modulation to Improve Well-Being, Kinematics and Aerobic Performance in Cyclists
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Healthy
In brief
This study will utilize a combination of cardiovascular analysis, 3D motion capture, and a software package, Metrifit, to monitor measures of well-being to comprehensively evaluate both the musculoskeletal and physiological responses following a HIIT training intervention at EOC as a means of improving performance and potentially reducing injury risk factors. This holistic approach of physiological and biomechanical factors is unprecedented. This is the first interventional study to determine the effect of high intensity training at EOC on cardiovascular performance, kinematics and well-being which may minimize risk of injury factors.
