Physiological effects of constant versus variable power during endurance cycling
The purpose of this study was to determine whether variable power (VP) cycling produced greater physiological stress than constant power (CP) cycling of the same mean intensity.
Conclusion: During a strenuous 1-h effort (78% of VO2max), subjects experienced no additional physiological stress by
varying power ± 5% compared with that during a constant power effort.
