Abstract

The relationship between parameters of the maximal physical capacity, the an- aerobic threshold and the anaerobic energy release were investigated with two different test procedures. The subjects were 20 female physical education students of different physical capacity. The maximal values and the anaerobic threshold were evaluated with a stepwise increment bicycle ergometer test protocol. The anaerobic energy release was investigated by a lactic acid determination during a submaximal body weight-related work load on a bicycle ergometer of 1 min duration. The results of these tests were discussed in relation to test results of other groups of high-performance athletes. The main findings were that the anaerobic energy release during the anaerobic submaximal test depends on the level of physical training, especially the endurance performance. Verf.-Referat
