Electrical support during outdoor cycling in patients with coronary artery disease: impact on exercise intensity, volume and perception of effort Universiteit Hasselt Universiteit Antwerpen
Background: Electrical assisted bicycles (EAB’s) could be used to overcome barriers and difficulties to outdoor cycling and thus assist in achieving a sufficient physical activity level in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients, but it is unknown whether sufficient exercise intensities and volumes could be elicited during cycling on EAB’s. In this study we examined, for the first time, the acute physiological impact of electrical support during ...
