Critical Power: Cardiovascular and Muscle Metabolic Determinants of Oxygen Uptakereviews the “critical†features of critical power, including the fact that it is a boundary above which a physiological steady state cannot be attained. In that regard, the DVD also discusses the findings of several of the more interesting recent and older studies on critical power. Featuring three renowned experts, the DVD offers more than two hours of information, ideas, and insights on this compelling topic.
• Metabolic and respiratory profile of the upper limit for prolonged exercise in man (Andrew M. Jones)
• Critical power: muscle metabolic determinants and implications for pulmonary 02 uptake (Anni Vanhatalo)
• Effects of pacing strategy on work done above critical power during high- intensity exercise ·
• Mechanisms for the V02 slow component
• Muscle hemodynamic control relative to critical power/speed (David C. Poole)
• Vascular control relativeto critical speed
• Role of nNOS in vascular control
• Critical power: novel mathematicsand physiological correlates(Philip Friere Skiba)
