Patent abstract
A treadmill test protocol is provided having a linearly increasing work rate profile achieved by increasing walking speed while simultaneously increasing treadmill inclination. Specifically, according to the protocol it is possible to use a test subject's projected maximum end-test work rate to calculate a treadmill test protocol having a linear increase in walking speed and simultaneous curvilinear increase in treadmill grade so that when the test subject is tested according to the calculated protocol, the test result yields a work rate and oxygen uptake response with a linear slope.
