Abstract
Objective, Conconi et al, proposed that the point where heart rate departed from linearity in an incremental exercise test was a good indicator of the anaerobic: threshold, However, the heart rate deflection points (HRDPs) can not be determined in many subjects, The aim of this study was to determine the heart rate deflection point by the Dmax method and to compare it with the conventional linear method,
