Ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) from a submaximal 20-m shuttle-run test accurately predict children’s VO2peak, but when should we stop the test?
Submaximal 20mSRT utilising RPE may offer valid predictions in VO<sub>2peak</sub> while minimising negative affect. Test end points of EP6 and EP7 both offer valid predictions in VO<sub>2peak</sub>. EP6 may be more beneficial in avoiding negative affect, even though a reduction in test-retest reliability was observed.
