So this study basically says that the metabolic cost is not based on the cadence, but the velocity of the muscle shortening no? So 40rpm @ 200mm cranks is the same as 80rpm at 100mm so the cadence does not necessarily dictate metabolic cost, however, if we are assuming the same crank length then an increase in cadence would lead to an increase in muscle shortening velocity and an increase in metabolic cost no? Am I reading this wrong?
