Define each and state the relevance of each to the field of athlete testing – what does an athlete gain from these tests.

Exercise Physiology

You are expected to complete a lab report (1,500 words ± 10%) based on your results. This should include FIVE sections:

Introduction (≈600 words) (30%).
In this section you should introduce the reader to the area of interest. In this coursework, the area is
maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O2max)
Gas exchange threshold (GET)
the ‘V slope’ method
incremental exercise testing.

Define each and state the relevance of each to the field of athlete testing – what does an athlete gain from these tests. Give an example of the type of athlete who benefits from this test. Reference journal articles which have performed similar tests describing what they found. Use a funnel approach for the introduction (start broad and finish with the specific aim(s) of your study).
