Project description

The prescription of exercise from Cardiopulmonary Exercise Tests is problematic in practice as often the non-steady state physiological responses to the ramp protocol are not taken into account. This is the reason for the high inter-individual variability in the adaptations to training programs (many nonresponders). In this project we develop a strategy to optimally translate exercise test to training modalities.
