Article Synopsis
  • - The study evaluated the reliability of a method called detrended fluctuation analysis of heart rate variability (DFA-α1) for determining exercise intensity thresholds and compared it to traditional methods based on blood lactate and gas exchange for a group of 37 participants.
  • - Test results showed that DFA-α1 had good reliability and moderate agreement with the other two methods, although the accuracy of thresholds varied depending on participants' cardiorespiratory fitness levels.
  • - The findings indicated that male participants had a higher bias in threshold measurements compared to females, and to improve DFA-α1 accuracy, adjustments should be made based on both sex and fitness levels.

The aim was to assess concurrent validity and test-retest reliability of spatiotemporal gait parameters from a thoracic-placed inertial measurement unit (IMU) in lab- (Phase One) and field-based (Phase Two) conditions. Spatiotemporal gait parameters were compared (target speeds 3, 5 and 7.5 m·s) between a 100 Hz IMU and an optical measurement system (OptoJump Next, 1000 hz) in 14 trained individuals (Phase One).
