Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of determining metabolic parameters of one or several muscular motor units by coupling muscular response to ventilatory response of a subject, comprising, from a step of performing efforts (i) using a test device by the subject moving on the test device; (ii)-a step of instantaneously measuring the movement speed of one or several muscular motor units of the subject v(t), and the oxygen flow rate φO2t); (iii)-a step of plotting the COT curve of the oxygen flow rate of the subject against the movement speed of one or several muscular motor units of the subject v(t), (iv)-a step of determining the following metabolic parameters from the COT curve: Basal power B which is the vertical asymptote at the origin, Flow resistance RM which is the oblique asymptote at high intensities.
