TL;DR
The provision of surreptitiously augmented feedback derived from a previous performance reduces time taken for cyclists to accomplish a time trial of known duration, suggesting that cyclists operate with a metabolic reserve even during maximal time trials and that this reserve can be accessed after deception.
Abstract
The provision of surreptitiously augmented feedback derived from a previous performance reduces time taken for cyclists to accomplish a time trial of known duration. This suggests that cyclists operate with a metabolic reserve even during maximal time trials and that this reserve can be accessed after deception.

Sports MedicineThe Role of Information Processing Between the Brain and Peripheral Physiological Systems in Pacing and Perception of Effort
446 Citations2006Alan St Clair Gibson, Estelle V. Lambert +5 more
It is proposed that an internal clock, which appears to use scalar rather than absolute time scales, is used by the brain to generate knowledge of the duration or distance still to be covered, so that power output and metabolic rate can be altered appropriately throughout an event of a particular duration ordistance.

377 Citations2008Markus Amann, Lester T. Proctor +3 more
Attenuated afferent feedback from exercising locomotor muscles results in an overshoot in CMD and power output normally chosen by the athlete, thereby causing a greater rate of accumulation of muscle metabolites and excessive development of peripheral muscle fatigue.

It is concluded that muscular contractions associated with torso stabilization elicit significant metabolic costs, which tend to be greatest at low pedaling rates, which means researchers who intend to make precise inferences regarding metabolism in the working muscles of the legs may wish to provide torso stabilization as a means of reducing variability, particularly when comparing metabolic data across a wide range of pedaling rate.
