Abstract des Autors
The purpose of this study was to validate the ability of the 1-mile jog test to predict VO2max in fit teenagers. Forty-one males and 42 females performed the steady-state, submaximal jogging test on an indoor track, along with a maximal graded exercise test (GXT) on a treadmill. Open circuit calorimetry was used during the GXT to measure maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max). We generated the following age-specific prediction equation applicable to boys and girls 13-17 years old (n=83, R-adj=.88, SEE=3.26 ml/kg/min): VO2max = 92.91 + 6.50 x gender (0 = female, 1 = male) - 0.141 x body mass (kg) - 1.562 x jog time (min) - 0.125 x heart rate (bpm). Cross-validation results were acceptable (SEE-press=3.44 ml/kg/min). As a field test, the submaximal 1-mile jogging test may alleviate problems associated with pacing, motivation, discouragement, injury, and fatigue that are sometimes associated with maximal effort timed or distance run tests.
