Summary
"This trial aims to see if using virtual reality during a exercise test affects how well healthy adults perform. They want to know if virtual reality changes the maximum aerobic capacity and work rate during exercise. Participants will
Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy adults interested in how virtual reality might affect their performance during a maximal aerobic exercise test. Participants will need to be able to perform strenuous exercise and commit to two testing sessions with a week of recovery in between.
What is being tested?
The study is examining if using virtual reality videos while doing an intense workout can change the highest amount of oxygen someone can use (VO2peak) or when they hit the ventilatory threshold, which is a point during exercise where breathing starts to get really heavy.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves standard physical tests under lab conditions and watching virtual reality videos, side effects may include typical exercise-related discomfort or motion sickness due to VR.

Group I: Virtual Reality condition completed firstExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
In this arm, the Virtual Reality condition (traditional maximal cardiorespiratory exercise test with the addition of virtual reality video) will be completed first, and the Control condition (traditional maximal cardiorespiratory exercise test) will be completed second.
Group II: Control condition completed firstExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
In this arm, the Control condition (traditional maximal cardiorespiratory exercise test) will be completed first, and the Virtual Reality condition (traditional maximal cardiorespiratory exercise test with the addition of virtual reality video) will be completed second.
