<strong>Ventilatory Thresholds</strong>

<strong>BACKGROUND:</strong> The 6-minute rowing ergometer test (6-minRT) is valid and reliable for establishing maximal aerobic power (MAP) in amateur male rowers. However, ventilatory thresholds (VTs) have not yet been established with their mechanical correspondence in this test. <strong>OBJECTIVE:</strong> The primary objective was to determine the VTs in the 6-minRT achieved by amateur male rowers, while the secondary objective was to determine the correspondence between ventilatory, mechanical, and HR outcomes of the 6-minRT.

**背景：** 6分钟划船测力计测试（6-minute rowing ergometer test，6-minRT）可用于测定业余男性划船运动员的最大有氧功率（maximal aerobic power，MAP），且具备良好的效度与信度。然而目前尚无研究明确该测试中通气阈值（ventilatory thresholds，VTs）与其力学对应指标间的关联。**目的：** 本研究首要目的为明确业余男性划船运动员在6-minRT中可达到的通气阈值，次要目的则为探究该测试的通气、力学及心率（heart rate，HR）各项指标间的对应关系。
