Abstract
Dear Editor-in-Chief,
Shaykevich et al. (7) demonstrate the efficacy of auditory
feedback anchored at 75% of age-predicted HRmax to regulate
intensity (claimed as ‘‘moderate’’) during several
20-min bouts of cycling. Their technical approach is novel,
but 76% HRmax is the upper limit of moderate intensity, so
given the large error in age-predicted HRmax, it is unlikely
that their exercise bandwidth was ‘‘moderate’’ for all participants.
This is not our major concern, but it reveals one among
other inaccuracies: the most serious include training, interpretation,
and inferences relating to the RPE.
