title: [Relation between endurance time and maximal oxygen consumption during supramaximal running].
abstract: The relationship between speed and the maximal length of time supramaximal runs can be sustained (temps-limite, tlim) has been studied in seven male subjects (physical education students). Within the range of intensity studied, tlim strictly depends on maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max). The relationship between tlim and the relative energy cost of the exercises per unit of time (E), calculated by subtracting the maximal power of aerobic metabolism (Emaxox) from E, removes the interindividual differences of tlim. The function tlim = f(E-Emaxox) is described by an empirical equation of the form: tlim = a.exp[-b(E-Emaxox)] (r = 0.979; P less than 0.001), where the parameters a and b are respectively equal to 330.8 and 0.14 and where tlim, E and Emaxox are respectively expressed in seconds and in watts per kg of body weight.
