Abstract

The aim of this study was to review the literature on the effects of muscle fatigue generated by different cycling protocols, on the kinetics and kinematics of the crank cycle. Twenty-two studies were included in the review. The establishment of the fatigue processes caused an increase in the resulting and effective forces (all tests), together with the pedaling efficiency (incremental and constant tests). In addition, fatigue caused joint changes in the lower limbs (increased range of motion in the ankle and reduced contribution to total torque) in different cycling tests. Therefore, these pedaling strategies may be related to the maintenance of muscle work to postpone the cyclists’ exhaustion
