When a fit person‚ such as an athlete‚ exercises the pulse rate‚ breathing rate and lactic acid levels rise much less‚ than they do in an unfit person. As the exercise intensity increases so do the heart and respiratory rates to supply oxygen to the working muscles at a faster rate so they can keep up‚ few athletes have perfected this to a point where they

    the equipment (calibration) and environment (room temperature‚ humidity). With a small number of observations and participants cost of each error is reasonably high and more difficult to detect. Muscle power and muscle force are different terms and increasing the muscle force will not increase the muscle power if the speed of the action is decreased. The power is only increased with increasing force if velocity remains constant. The formula Power (P) = Force (F) * Velocity (V) is a basis for all
