Abstract

During maximal exercise, expected gender differences in ventilation volumes influence responses of one’s subjective psychological Borg’s scale of perceived exertion (RPE). Our data conclude that the physiological criterion of minute ventilation is a valid assessment of RPE for young fit females, but not for young fit males.
