MacPherson, A. C.; Turner, A. P.; Collins, D. – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2007
In activities requiring repetitive motions such as cycling, an individual gravitates to a natural cadence (NC). NC is seen as a "naturally occurring" phenomenon, a pace to which an individual reverts, as opposed to a consciously mediated pace, which is a learned ability. This article investigates this phenomenon by examining cyclists' NC, in this…
