NCT ID:
NCT05229250
Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Aged ≥ 18 years and ≤ 40 years
* Trained cyclist or triathlete regularly training at least \~3/week for at least five years and identifying with a particular cycle-sport
Exclusion Criteria:
* Earlier vascular iliac surgery
* Microvascular abnormalities (e.g. diabetes),
* Vascular abnormalities outside of the iliac region,
* Heart failure (New York Heart Association class \>I),
* Orthopedic/neurological entities potentially limiting exercise capacity,
* Obesity.
* Adipose tissue thickness \> 7.5 mm
These excluding conditions are considered as medical safety precautions to maximal exercise or as risk of unexpected pathophysiological effects confounding our primary outcome measures.
It is known that a high level of adipose tissue thickness (ATT) influences the accuracy of NIRS measurement of underlying muscular tissue. A \> 7.5 mm ATT cut-off point at the site of NIRS measurement determined with a skinfold caliper (Harpenden, Baty International West Sussex, UK) was chosen. The ATT is calculated as half the skinfold thickness.
