Hello
My name is Armin Streibl and I study “Science of Sports” at the Karl Franzens University in Graz/Austria.
At the moment I am serching for an adequte issue for my degree dissertation.
I have the idea that the oxygen uptake during a cinconi test on a bike will be increased with a diaphragm tape?!
I searched for previous studies but i was not able to find some.
Maybe you could help me, do you know similar studies or do you know where I could find something?
Sincere regards
Streibl Armin
