Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)

The emergence of new modes of exercise such as the Rogue Echo Bike creates the opportunity for strength and conditioning coaches to utilize these new modes in training protocols to assess and improve aerobic fitness. While there are currently procedures to reliably predict Vo2 max indirectly in a non-laboratory setting (e.g., Cooper 1.5-mile test) there is no protocol designed to indirectly predict Vo2 max for a cyclical arm-and-leg fan bike. A protocol designed for use on the Rogue Echo Bike will reliably predict indirect Vo2 Max values in Division II female athletes.
