Fatigue-related parameters (BORG, heart rate, blood lactate level, concentric/eccentric force of the quadriceps muscle) will be measured before and after different short-term high-intensity, intermittent exercise protocols.
The purpose of this study is to identify an exercise-induced fatigue protocol to mimic central and peripheral acute fatigue effects associated with participation in vigorous dynamic sports activities and to understand the expected central (cardiovascular) and peripheral (muscular) impact of this protocol.
