Research
Neural
Significant inverse relationships exist between RPE and average concentric velocity (ACV) during both exercises.
Coaches can use RPE to adjust training intensity based on velocity metrics.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Significant inverse relationships existed between RPE and ACV during both exercises (r = -0.98 to -1.00).
Why this rating
Based on study design from abstract.
