Aim: The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of aerobic training on the relationship between the heart rate deflection point and anaerobic threshold (AT). Patients and Methods: Seventeen untrained, obese subjects (body mass index: 39.5 ± 1.2 kg/m^2) completed 2 incremental ramp exercise tests (15 W/min) up to the point of exhaustion using an electromagnetically-braked cycle ergometer; once at the onset and once at the end of a 4-week period. All subjects participated in a regular anaerobic exercise training programme (45 min, 3 times per-week, for 4 weeks) combined with a hypocaloric diet. Heart rate was recorded …
