Abstract
A standing cycling position is commonly employed during high-intensity efforts, yet comprehensive understanding of position-specific neuromuscular adaptations remains limited. This pilot study evaluated physiological and biomechanical responses during one-minute maximal cycling in seated versus standing positions. Five competitive male cyclists (age 20.0 ± 2.9 years) performed randomised one-minute all-out tests in both positions on a Wahoo KICKR ergometer. Power output, cadence, heart rate, and surface electromyography (EMG) of four lower limb muscles were measured. Standing position generated 21.4% higher average power output (467.6 ± 95.8 versus 386.6 ± 81.9 Watts,
