Practitioners place importance on high-speed running (HSR) to monitor training practice and match-play demands, whilst attempting to maximise fitness and minimize the risk of injury occurrence. Practitioners apply various methods to quantify HSR, suc... Read More about Validation of Field-Based Running Tests to Determine Maximal Aerobic Speed in Professional Rugby League.

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is the ‘gold standard’ method for evaluating functional capacity, with oxygen pulse (O2Pulse) inflections serving as a potential indicator of myocardial ischaemia. However, the reliability and agreement of iden...
