as previous studies have indicated that the end spurt in running is associated with an increase in the CMG signal‚ length of each stride and stride frequency. The third phenomenon is the protection of homeostasis. According to the Hill model‚ this does not occur‚ as it is the failure of homeostasis that causes fatigue and exhaustion. Contrarily‚ the key prediction of the CGM is that behaviour modification (e.g.‚ pacing strategies) ensures that homoeostasis is protected under
