Lieberg, Erika M., M.S., May 2007 Health and Human Performance Variability of substrate utilization during exercise relative to VO2vt and VO2max Chairperson: Steven E. Gaskill PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine to the stability of ventilatory threshold (VT) as a set point for prescription of exercise intensity. METHODS: Fifty-eight healthy adults (males n = 28, females n = 30) performed VO2max and steady state testing. The VO2max test used a treadmill ramp protocol to determine VO2max and VO2vt. The results were used to determine workload exercise relative to VO2vt and VO2max (70% VO2vt ? 40% VO2max, 90% …
