Popis: This study aimed at experimentally validating a subject-specific maximum endurance time (MET) model. Thirty health participants (15 males and 15 females; Age: mean = 21.5 years, SD = 1.6 years) volunteered to conduct an isometric elbow flexion task until exhaustion. The endurance times of each participant were measured under relative exertion levels ranging from 30% MVC (Maximum Voluntary Contraction) to 70% MVC at 10% intervals. Assessment of the model showed that the intensity-endurance time relationship for each studied individual could be well fitted by the subject-specific MET model (R
