Any damage, failure or loss caused by accident, misuse, neglect, abuse, improper assembly, improper maintenance, or failure to follow instructions or warnings in User Guide .
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Absolute Intensity 1. The actual intensity value. For example, 300 watts, 175 beats per minute, or a 7 on a 1 to 10 RPE chart. Angular Velocity 1. The rate at which a spinning object rotates. 2. How fast something is spinning in units of angle per unit time such as degrees per second. 3. Angular displacement divided by elapsed time during which the displacement occurs. 4.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Force 1. A vector quantity that produces an acceleration of a body in the direction of its application. 2. To push. 3. The amount of pressure applied to the pedals or rear hub. 4. A measure of strength. 5. Power divided by velocity. Gross Mechanical Efficiency (GME) 1. The percentage of stored energy or food burned by the body that is converted to actual power output. For an average person riding a bicycle the gross mechanical efficiency is equal to 22%.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Kilocalorie or Kcal 1. 1000 calories. 2. A unit of energy equal to that needed to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram or liter of water 1 ˚C. 3. A measure of the amount of energy in food 4. On U.S. food labels, 1 Calorie, spelled with a capital “C”, rather than a lower case “c” is equal to 1 Kilocalorie or Kcal. 5. 4.186 Kjoules 6. For a given person, the total energy burned in Kcals is equal to the total Kjoules of work performed on a bicycle divided by 4.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Lactate Threshold > 1mM 1. The power output or exercise intensity where the blood lactate is equal to 1 mM above its resting baseline. 2. An exercise intensity characterized as hard. 3. The mid point of the lactate threshold training zone. 4. An exercise intensity that can be held for 1 to 2 hours. Lactate Threshold 4 mM 1. The power output or exercise intensity at a blood lactate level of 4 mM or 2 to 3 mM above baseline. 2.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Periodization 1. Breaking a training or race program into distinct periods where different attributes important to a cyclist’s overall performance are developed. 2. The idea that training adaptations are optimized by periods of hard work that exceed the average training load accustomed to by the athlete which are then followed by periods of easy work or recovery that are below the average training load normally performed by the athlete.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Rating of Perceived Exertion (PE or RPE) 1. An individual’s rating of effort or intensity typically scored on a 1 to 10 scale where 1 is equal to rest and 10 is equal to a maximal or all out effort. 2. An individual’s rating of effort or intensity scored on a 6 to 20 scale, where 6 is equal to rest and meant to be equivalent of a resting heart rate of 60 beats per minute and 20 is equal to a maximal effort or a heart rate of 200 beats per minute.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Strain or Response 1. An indirect measure of the exercise intensity such as the cardiovascular (i.e., heart rate), metabolic, or psychological response to a given power output. 2. A measure of the total training load or work done that is based on a person’s response to a workout or bout of exercise rather than on the actual work. 3.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms VO2 Max 1. The maximal amount of oxygen that a person can consume and process measured in liters of oxygen per minute (absolute) or in milliliters of oxygen per minute per kilogram of body weight (normalized to body weight). 2. The upper limit of aerobic metabolism. 3. A strong predictor of endurance performance in a mixed population of individuals. 4. An exercise intensity corresponding with the maximal power output a person can hold between 2 to 8 minutes.
