Description
Summary:	Borges Junior WL, Santos Junior VM, Souza EO, Lisboa RL, Marine DA, Lima MA, Magosso R, Rodrigues CNS, Furino VO, Fabrizzi F, Pires CMR, Stocco MR, Takehara, JC, Duarte ACGO. Assessment of Cardiorespiratory Capacity of Muay Thai Athletes Using Two Different Ergometers. JEPonline 2018;21(1):133-138. This study compared the cardiorespiratory capacity of six Muay Thai athletes using a rowing ergometer and a treadmill ergometer. The subjects were submitted to a progressive effort test during which a metabolic gas analyzer was used to determine cardiorespiratory capacity. During the progressive rowing and treadmill tests, the subjects' presented statistically significant differences in V[O.sub.2] max of 48.9 [+ or -] 11.6, VC[O.sub.2] 54.2 [+ or -] 12.9, [V.sub.E] 93.1 [+ or -] 58.7, and R 1.1 [+ or -] 0.1, and V[O.sub.2] max 42.4 [+ or -] 11.0, VC[O.sub.2] 50.7 [+ or -] 19.0, [V.sub.E] 96.6 [+ or -] 36.3, and R 1.4 [+ or -] 0.3, respectively. The findings indicate that the progressing rowing test resulted in a greater amount of overall physiological work and, thus should be taken into consideration when determining the training effects of the Muay Thai athletes.
