Therefore the aim of this review was to present the major exercise strategy mechanisms, based on the decision-making models supported by accurate afferent information, or contextual / intuitive, which are used to calculate the risk of the exercise/test, and decide to reduce/maintain/increase the pace of exercise/test.
