Resum	Critical power (CP) is the highest power output that can be sustained indefinitely without fatigue, representing the boundary between sustainable and unsustainable exercise. Introduced by Henry Monod and Scherrer in 1965, the critical power model describes the hyperbolic relationship between power output and time-to-exhaustion. The model partitions work capacity into two components: critical power (the aerobic ceiling) and anaerobic work capacity (the maximal work that can be performed above critical power before depletion). This framework is widely used in exercise physiology, sports science, and occupational biomechanics.	Heart rate recovery (HRR) is the decline in heart rate during the first minutes following maximal or submaximal exercise, reflecting the reactivation of parasympathetic (vagal) tone. Introduced as a clinical predictor by Cole and colleagues (1999), HRR serves as a non-invasive biomarker of cardiac autonomic function and overall cardiovascular health. A rapid decline in heart rate after exertion indicates efficient parasympathetic reactivation and healthy autonomic nervous system balance. Conversely, blunted HRR (slow heart rate recovery) is associated with increased mortality risk, autonomic dysfunction, and poor exercise tolerance.	Session rate of perceived exertion (sRPE) is a simple, athlete-centered method to quantify training load by combining perceived exertion intensity (RPE, 0-10 scale) with session duration. Introduced by Carl Foster (2001), sRPE avoids the need for external equipment (heart rate monitors, GPS, force plates) and captures the integrated physiological and psychological demands of any training modality. Despite its simplicity, sRPE correlates well with objective physiological markers (heart rate, lactate, VO2) and is widely adopted in elite and recreational sports for load management and recovery planning.
