Figure 3

Exercise testing protocols. Schematic representation of constant load testing (A) and incremental exercise testing (B) using feedback-controlled robotics-assisted treadmill exercise. The solid line represents the mechanical work rate (P mech ) produced by the subject. The dashed line represents the target work rate (P* mech ). The slope will be estimated such that the predefined peak work rate is reached after 10 minutes. When individual termination criteria are met the incremental phase is ended and P* mech set back to the passive level.
