A brief history of the Anaerobic Threshold Concept

Dr Aamer Sandoo recently published an A-Z article in the American College of Sports Medicine Health and Fitness Journal (May/June 2021 issue). The article is titled ‘A Brief History of the Anaerobic Threshold Concept’ and was specially commissioned by the Journal in response to a video about the same topic on Aamer’s ever popular YouTube channel ‘Physiology Made Easy with Dr Aamer Sandoo’.  Aamer commented: “The article presents a comprehensive overview of the anaerobic threshold concept, use of the test in clinical and sporting situations, and practical suggestions to measure in the lab and the field. The article will greatly benefit health and fitness professionals by providing them with an up-to-date overview of the topic and extend the information that was originally presented in the YouTube video”.
