  • Title: Anaerobic threshold as a measure of physical work capacity.
    Author: Shah AA, Kurdikar VL, Mathur RS, Shah JR.
    Journal: J Assoc Physicians India; 1991 Jul; 39(7):534-6. PubMed ID: 1800498.
    Abstract:
    Fifty healthy subjects underwent incremental exercise on a treadmill. Anaerobic threshold (AT) and maximum oxygen consumed in litres per minute (VO2 max) were measured. VO2 max (mean +/- SD) in males and females was 2.71 +/- 0.5 and 2.014 +/- 0.4 L/min respectively. AT as a percentage of VO2 max predicted was 58 in males and 56 in females. These values were comparable to Western studies. Anaerobic threshold is the most sensitive indicator of exercise performance.
