The aim of this study was to examine the effects of fatigue induced by a 65-km ultramarathon on the oxygen cost of running (Cr) and cycling (Ccycl). The day before and immediately after the race, a group of nine well-trained male subjects performed two submaximal 4-min exercise bouts: one cycling at a power corresponding to 1.5 W x kg(-1) body mass on an electromagnetically braked ergometer, and one running at 11 km x h(-1) on a flat asphalt roadway. Before oxygen cost determinations, the subjects performed 12 "ankle" jumps at a given frequency that was fixed by an electronic metronome (2.5 Hz). From the non-fatigued to the fatigued condition, there was a significant increase in minute ventilation for both running (P < 0.01) and cycling (P < 0.0001). Significant changes were also found in respiratory exchange ratio both for running (P = 0.01) and cycling (P < 0.0001). However, running and cycling differed in that Cycyc increased significantly by [mean (SD)] 24.2 (11.5)% (P < 0.001), suggesting an alteration of muscle efficiency, while Cr did not change with fatigue [186.8 (14.1) mlO2 x kg(-1) x km(-1) vs 186.8 (18.7) mlO2 x kg(-1) x km(-1)]. In addition, contact times during hopping increased significantly from 0.173 (0.019) ms to 0.194 (0.027) ms (P < 0.01). Analysis of the factors that determine Cr indicate that the subjects modified their movement pattern in order to decrease the mechanical cost of running in such long-term fatigue conditions.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to examine the possible relationship between the thermogenic response to a mixed meal and the aerobic capacity in healthy subjects. Fourteen male subjects participated, and their maximal oxygen uptake was determined on a bicycle exercise ergometer. Two groups, each comprising seven individuals, were compared: a well-trained group, with an oxygen uptake of 58 +/- 2 ml min-1 kg-1 and a sedentary group, with an oxygen uptake of 39 +/- 2 ml min-1 kg-1. Respiratory gas exchange was measured continuously for 1 h in the basal state and then for 3 h postprandially. The subjects ingested a test meal in liquid form, consisting of 17% kJ protein, 28% kJ lipids and 55% kJ carbohydrates, and corresponding to 60% of the individually computed 24-h basal energy expenditure. Basal oxygen uptake and energy expenditure were similar in the two groups. After the meal, pulmonary oxygen uptake and energy expenditure rose rapidly and reached a plateau after 1 h. The responses were no different in the two groups: the average rise in pulmonary oxygen uptake above basal during the whole study period was 24.0 +/- 2.1% in well-trained and 26.7 +/- 1.5% in sedentary subjects (NS); the corresponding values for energy expenditure were 25.0 +/- 2.1% and 29.0 +/- 1.6% (NS). Also, when expressed in absolute terms the increments above basal were not significantly different. There was no discernible relationship between the individual thermogenic response and maximal oxygen uptake. In conclusion, the present findings do not indicate that diet-induced thermogenesis is proportional to aerobic capacity in healthy young men.  相似文献

To evaluate the physiological demands and effects of different pacing strategies on performance during the new combined event (CE) of the modern pentathlon (consisting of three pistol shooting sessions interspersed by three 1-km running legs). Nine elite pentathletes realised five tests: a free-paced CE during an international competition; an incremental running test to determine [Formula: see text] and its related velocity ([Formula: see text]) and three experimental time-trial CE, where the pacing strategy was manipulated (CE(ref), CE(100%), CE(105%)). CE(ref) reproduced the international competition strategy with a 170-m fast running start within the first 2 km. CE(100%) and CE(105%) imposed a constant strategy over km-1 and km-2 with a velocity of 100 and 105% of the mean speed adopted over the same sections during the international competition, respectively. Km-3 was always self-paced. The subjects ran CE(ref) at 99 ± 4% of [Formula: see text] and reached 100 ± 5, 100 ± 7, 99 ± 8% of [Formula: see text] at the end of kilometres 1, 2 and 3, respectively ([Formula: see text]: 72 ± 6 mL O(2) min(-1) kg(-1)), with a peak blood lactate concentration of 13.6 ± 1.5 mmol L(-1). No significant differences in overall performance were found between the pacing conditions (753 ± 30, 770 ± 39, 768 ± 27 s for CE(ref), CE(100%) and CE(105%), respectively, p = 0.63), but all of the shooting performance parameters were only stable in CE(ref). Completion of CE by elite pentathletes elicits a maximal aerobic contribution coupled with a high glycolytic supply. Manipulating the mean running speed over km-1 and km-2 had strong influence on the overall pacing strategy and induced minor differences in shooting performance, but it did not affect overall performance.  相似文献

The aims of this study were: (i) to analyze age-related declines in swimming, cycling, and running performances for road-based and off-road triathlons, and (ii) to compare age-related changes in these three disciplines between road-based and off-road triathlons. Swimming, cycling, running and total time performances of the top five males between 20 and 70 years of age (in 5-year intervals) were analyzed for short distance road-based (1.5 km swim, 40 km cycle, and 10 km run) and off-road (1.5 km swim, 30 km mountain bike, and 11 km trail run) triathlons at the 2009 World Championships. Independently of age, there was a lesser age-related decline in cycling performance (P < 0.01) compared to running and swimming for road-based triathlon. In contrast, age-related decline did not differ between the three locomotion modes for off-road triathlon. With advancing age, the performance decline was less pronounced (P < 0.01) for road-based than for off-road triathlon in swimming (≥65 years), cycling (≥50 years), running (≥60 years), and total event (≥55 years) times, respectively. These results suggest that the rate of the decline in performance for off-road triathlon is greater than for road-based triathlon, indicating that the type of discipline (road vs. mountain bike cycling and road vs. trail running) exerts an important influence on the magnitude of the age-associated changes in triathlon performance.  相似文献

Increase in energy cost of running at the end of a triathlon   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
The purpose of the present study was to verify the increase in energy cost of running at the end of a triathlon. A group 11 trained male subjects performed a triathlon (15-km swimming, 40-km cycling, 10-km running). At least 1 week later the subjects ran 10-km as a control at the same pace as the triathlon. Oxygen uptake ( O2), ventilation ( E) and heart rate (HR) were measured during both 10-km runs with a portable telemetry system. Blood samples were taken prior to the start of the triathlon and control run, after swimming, cycling, triathlon run and control run. Compared to the control values the results demonstrated that triathlon running elicited a significantly higher (P < 0.005) mean O2 [51.2 (SEM 0.4) vs 47.8 (SEM 0.4) ml·min–1·kg] E [86 (SEM 4.2) vs 74 (SEM 5.3) l·min–1], and HR [162 (SEM 2) vs 156 (SEM 1.9) beats·min–1)]. The triathlon run induced a greater loss in body mass than the control run [2 (SEM 0.2) vs 0.6 (SEM 0.2) kg], and a greater decrease in plasma volume [14.4% (SEM 1.5) vs 6.7% (SEM 0.9)]. The lactate concentrations observed at the end of both 10-km runs did not differ [2.9 (SEM 0.2) vs 2.5 (SEM 0.2) m·mol·l–1]. Plasma free fatty acids concentrations were higher (P < 0.01) after the triathlon than after the control run [1.53 (SEM 0.2) to 0.51 (SEM 0.07) mmol·l–1]. Plasma creatine kinase concentrations rose under both conditions from 58 (SEM 12) to 112 (SEM 14) UI·l–1 after the triathlon, and from 61 (SEM 7) to 80 (SEM 6) UI·l–1 after the control run. This outdoor study of running economy at the end of an Olympic distance triathlon demonstrated a decrease in running efficiency.  相似文献

The present study compared the effects of a footwear designed to enhance energy return (thermoplastic polyurethane, TPU) vs minimalist shoes on running economy (RE) and endurance performance. In this counterbalanced and crossover design study, 11 recreational male runners performed two submaximal constant-speed running tests and two 3-km time-trials with the two shoe models. Oxygen uptake was measured during submaximal constant-speed running tests in order to determine the RE at 12 km/h and oxygen cost of running (CTO2) at individual average speed sustained during the 3-km running time-trials wearing either of the two shoes. Our results revealed that RE was improved (2.4%) with TPU shoes compared with minimalist shoes (P=0.01). However, there was no significant difference for CTO2 (P=0.61) and running performance (P=0.52) comparing the TPU (710±60 s) and the minimalist (718±63 s) shoe models. These novel findings demonstrate that shoes with enhanced mechanical energy return (i.e. TPU) produced a lower energy cost of running at low (i.e., 12 km/h) but not at high speeds (i.e., average speed sustained during the 3-km running time-trial, ∼15 km/h), ultimately resulting in similar running performance compared to the minimalist shoe.  相似文献

The influence of physical training on responses to i.v. adrenaline infusions and to exercise were investigated in 10 endurance-trained men (mean age: 35 y; VO2max: 61.9 ml kg-1 min-1) and 10 age-matched and sedentary controls (36 y, 37.5 ml kg-1 min-1). The untrained subjects were reinvestigated after a 4 month training period which increased their VO2max by 18%. Resting heart rate and diastolic blood pressure were significantly lower in the trained state. The venous plasma adrenaline concentrations attained during infusions (4 dose levels, 8 min each) were lower in the well-trained than in the untrained subjects (2.15 vs. 3.59 nmol l-1 at the highest dose level, P less than 0.01). The adrenaline-induced increases in heart rate and in plasma cAMP and decreases in pre-ejection period (PEP) and PEP/LVET ratio were not dependent on the training state. The adrenaline-induced decrease in diastolic blood pressure was more pronounced (P less than 0.05) in the well-trained than in the untrained group and tended (0.05 less than P less than 0.1) to be enhanced by training in the latter group. The increases in systolic blood pressure were greater in the well-trained subjects (P less than 0.01) but training did not alter this response in the untrained subjects. The plasma noradrenaline response to maximal cycle ergometer exercise (VO2max test) was significantly greater in the well-trained than in the untrained subjects, while no difference was seen for adrenaline. The submaximal exercise systolic blood pressure was similar in all training conditions when related to the absolute rate of work. In summary, the present results indicate that both the vasodilator and systolic pressor responses to adrenaline are enhanced in endurance-trained subjects. The cardiac chronotropic and inotropic effects of adrenaline seem, however, to be independent of the training state.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to compare the maximal isometric torque and cardio-respiratory parameters in well-trained young and master triathletes prior to and following an Olympic distance triathlon. One day before and 24 h following the event, participants performed three maximum voluntary isometric knee extensions and flexions and an incremental running test on a treadmill to determine the maximal isometric torque, maximal oxygen uptake ( [(V)\dot]\textO2max ) \left( {\dot{V}{\text{O}}_{2\max } } \right) , speed at [(V)\dot]\textO2max \dot{V}{\text{O}}_{2\max } (vVO2max), speed at ventilatory thresholds (VT1 and VT2) and submaximal running economy. Prior to the event [(V)\dot]\textO2max \dot{V}{\text{O}}_{2\max } , vVO2max, speed at ventilatory thresholds and running economy were significantly lower in master athletes, but maximal voluntary torque was similar between the groups. 24 h following the race, a similar significant decrease in [(V)\dot]\textO2max \dot{V}{\text{O}}_{2\max } (−3.1% in masters, and −6.2% in young, p < 0.05), and vVO2max (−9.5% in masters, and −5.6% in young, p < 0.05) was observed in both the groups. The speed at VT2 significantly decreased only in master athletes (−8.3%, p < 0.05), while no change was recorded in maximal voluntary torque or submaximal running economy following the event. The results indicate that for well-trained subjects, the overall relative exercise intensity during an Olympic distance triathlon and the fatigue 24 h following the event seem to be independent of age.  相似文献

This study examined the relation of training distance to plasma high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) concentration in runners. Forty-eight male endurance runners, aged from 30 to 57 years, were classified into three groups according to training distance (Grade I: n = 12, 30 km/week; Grade II: n = 22, 60 km/week; Grade III: n = 14, 100 km/week in average running distance), with 12 non-lean and 12 lean subjects as age-matched untrained controls. There were no significant differences in plasma total cholesterol among the groups (194-208 mg/dl on average). HDLC level was significantly higher in the untrained, lean group than in the untrained, non-lean men (63 +/- 13 vs. 46 +/- 8 mg/dl, mean +/- SD). HDLC levels in all the runner groups were significantly higher than in untrained, lean subjects, and no differences were observed among Grade I, II and III runner groups (76 +/- 15, 76 +/- 13, 77 +/- 11 mg/dl, respectively). This study suggests that further increases in HDLC could not occur in response to further elevation of training distance in well-trained runners.  相似文献

Five subjects walked and ran at overlapping speeds and different gradients on a motorized treadmill. At each gradient the speed was obtained at which walking and running have the same metabolic cost (Sm) and the speed of spontaneous (Ss) transition between the two gaits was measured. Ss was found to be statistically lower than Sm at all gradients, the difference being in the range of 0.5–0.9 km h-1. The motion analysis of walking reveals that at all gradients and at increasing speed: (1) the percentage of recovery, an index of mechanical energy saving related to the pendulum–like characteristic of walking, decreases; (2) the lower limb spread reaches a limit in walking; and consequently (3) both the stride frequency and the internal mechanical work, due to limb acceleration in relation to the body centre of mass, increase much more in walking than in running. Switching to a run, although implying a higher frequency, makes the internal work decrease as a result of the lower limb spread. In this paper several influences, such as the ‘ratings of perceived exertion’ (RPE), on the choice of beginning to run when it is more economical to walk, are discussed. A tentative hypothesis on the determinants of Ss, which is emphasized to be a speed which has to be studied in detail but is generally avoided in locomotion, is based on a comfort criterion from peripheric afferences and is reflected by the fact that at Ss a running stride costs as much as a walking stride. A preliminary measure of the subjects' behaviour during spontaneous overground locomotion, where the progression speed can be changed freely, reveals that the running speed immediately following gait transition is approximately 2 km h-1 higher than the ‘last’ walking speed, supporting the hypothesis of metabolic energy minimization.  相似文献

Plasma lipid and lipoprotein profiles were compared in elderly female runners (RU: n = 15, aged 66 +/- 5 years, body fat 20 +/- 4%, training distance 35 +/- 15 km week-1, VO2max 36 +/- 4 ml kg-1 min-1, mean +/- SD) and age-matched untrained women (UT: n = 28, 66 +/- 4 years, body fat 26 +/- 6%, VO2max 26 +/- 3 ml kg-1 min-1). There were insignificant differences in total cholesterol (RU: 5.04 +/- 0.60 vs. UT: 5.48 +/- 0.85 mmol l-1), HDL-cholesterol (RU: 1.97 +/- 0.41 vs. UT: 1.91 +/- 0.36 mmol l-1) and LDL-cholesterol (RU: 2.72 +/- 0.59 vs. UT: 3.03 +/- 0.80 mmol l-1) between the two groups. Plasma triglyceride concentration of the runners was significantly lower than that of the untrained women (RU: 0.80 +/- 0.27 vs UT: 1.14 +/- 0.36 mmol l-1, P less than 0.01). No difference was observed in the LDL-cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol ratio between the two groups (RU: 1.45 +/- 0.51 vs UT: 1.64 +/- 0.53 units). These results suggest that regularly performed running of 35 km week-1 in elderly women does not further elevate their HDL-cholesterol level which is already high compared to the levels found in elderly men. However, elderly female runners appear to be protected against age-related increases in the levels of triglyceride and LDL-cholesterol.  相似文献

Pygmy locomotion     
The hypothesis that Pygmies may differ from Caucasians in some aspects of the mechanics of locomotion was tested. A total of 13 Pygmies and 7 Caucasians were asked to walk and run on a treadmill at 4–12 km · h–1. Simultaneous metabolic measurements and three-dimensional motion analysis were performed allowing the energy expenditure and the mechanical external and internal work to be calculated. In Pygmies the metabolic energy cost was higher during walking at all speeds (P < 0.05), but tended to be lower during running (NS). The stride frequency and the internal mechanical work were higher for Pygmies at all walking (P < 0.05) and running (NS) speeds although the external mechanical work was similar. The total mechanical work for Pygmies was higher during walking (P < 0.05), but not during running and the efficiency of locomotion was similar in all subjects and speeds. The higher cost of walking in Pygmies is consistent with the allometric prediction for smaller subjects. The major determinants of the higher cost of walking was the difference in stride frequency (+9.45, SD 0.44% for Pygmies), which affected the mechanical internal work. This explains the observed higher total mechanical work of walking in Pygmies, even when the external component was the same. Most of the differences between Pygmies and Caucasians, observed during walking, tended to disappear when the speed was normalized as the Fronde number. However, this was not the case for running. Thus, whereas the tested hypothesis must be rejected for walking, the data from running, do indeed suggest that Pygmies may differ in some aspects of the mechanics of locomotion.  相似文献

Mechanical work, mechanical power, energy consumption and mechanical efficiency were studied in constant-speed treadmill running of 5 min at seven different exercises around aerobic (AerT) and anaerobic (AnT) thresholds. The true efficiency of concentric (positive) mechanical work and gross efficiency of the whole body in seven male subjects were calculated. The total mechanical work was calculated from film through the translational, potential and rotational energy states as the sum of the changes of all the mechanical energy states in all body segments allowing energy transfer between segments and from energy state to state. The total energy consumption was measured by combining aerobic and anaerobic energy production in resting and working conditions. When the speed of the treadmill was increased from the velocity of 10 km h-1 (2.8 m s-1) to 22 km h-1 (6.1 m s-1), the concentric mechanical work per one step increased from 129 +/- 45 J to 228 +/- 82 J (P less than 0.01). Oxygen consumption increased from 2.22 +/- 0.27 1 min-1 to 4.47 +/- 0.24 1 min-1. The amount of blood lactate increased from 0.94 +/- 0.53 mmol l-1 at the lowest speed to 9.90 +/- 2.89 mmol l-1 at the highest speed (P less than 0.001). The true efficiency of concentric work decreased from 74 +/- 14% to 56 +/- 8% (P less than 0.05). At the speed of the AerT, the economy of running, the vertical rise of different body segments and mechanical efficiency of positive work were high. The highest gross efficiency was found at the running speed between the AerT and AnT.  相似文献

We investigated the effect of oral creatine supplementation (20 g d(-1) for 7 days) on metabolism during a 1-h cycling performance trial. Twenty endurance-trained cyclists participated in this double-blind placebo controlled study. Five days after familiarization with the exercise test, the subjects underwent a baseline muscle biopsy. Thereafter, a cannula was inserted into a forearm vein before performing the baseline maximal 1-h cycle (test 1 (T1)). Blood samples were drawn at regular intervals during exercise and recovery. After creatine (Cr) loading, the muscle biopsy, 1-h cycling test (test 2 (T2)) and blood sampling were repeated. Resting muscle total creatine (TCr), measured by high performance liquid chromatography, was increased (P < 0.001) in the creatine group from 123.0 +/- 3.8 - 159.8 +/- 7.9 mmol kg(-1) dry wt, but was unchanged in the placebo group (126.7 +/- 4.7 - 127.5 +/- 3.6 mmol kg(-1) dry wt). The extent of Cr loading was unrelated to baseline Cr levels (r=0.33, not significant). Supplementation did not significantly improve exercise performance (Cr group: 39.1 +/- 0.9 vs. 39.8 +/- 0.8 km and placebo group: 39.3 +/- 0.8 vs. 39.2 +/- 1.1 km) or change plasma lactate concentrations. Plasma concentrations of ammonia (NH(3)) (P < 0.05) and hypoxanthine (Hx) (P < 0.01) were lower in the Cr group from T1 to T2. Our results indicate that Cr supplementation alters the metabolic response during sustained high-intensity submaximal exercise. Plasma data suggest that nett intramuscular adenine nucleotide degradation may be decreased in the presence of enhanced intramuscular TCr concentration even during submaximal exercise.  相似文献

The quantification of sister chromatid exchange (SCE) during mitosis is a useful index for evaluating genotoxic effects in subjects occupationally or incidentally exposed to potentially toxic substances. The authors investigated the hypothesis that ions released by corrosion from prosthetic components of fracture fixation devices are associated with change in SCE incidence. In the present study, ten patients with implants were examined, and fifteen subjects with no implants were used as controls. SCE and high frequency cell (HFC) numbers were evaluated in circulating lymphocytes. In addition, nickel (Ni) and chromium (Cr) ion values in the serum were measured because, after iron, these metals are major components of stainless steel. A significant increase in SCE numbers was observed in patients compared to the control population (4.9 +/- 1.3 vs. 3.5 +/- 1.4). Ni concentration was 1.71 +/- 1.49 ng/mL in patients and 0.72 +/- 0.52 ng/mL in control subjects; Cr concentration was, respectively, 1.01 +/- 0.77 ng/mL and 0.19 +/- 0. 27 ng/mL. The increase of serum Cr and Ni was statistically significant. No correlation was found between the increased Cr concentrations and SCE number while Cr ion levels were found to be significantly correlated to HFC. An inverse correlation between Ni level and SCE numbers was observed. Our findings suggest that Cr release by stainless steel implants could have a genotoxic effect; thus it would be useful to carefully monitor implanted subjects with regard to serum ion dosage, SCE analysis, and HFC evaluation. In any case, it would be appropriate to remove the implant when fracture fixation is reached.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the degree of reproducibility of maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) among soccer players, using a modified Heck protocol. METHODS: 2 evaluations with an interval of 15 days between them were performed on 11 male soccer players. All the players were at a high performance level; they were training for an average of 10 hours per week, totaling 5 times a week. When they were evaluated, they were in the middle of the competitive season, playing 1 match per week. The soccer players were evaluated on an ergometric treadmill with velocity increments of 1.2 km.h-1 every 2 minutes and a fixed inclination of 3% during the test. VO2max was measured directly using a breath-by-breath metabolic gas analyzer. RESULTS: The maximum running speed and VO2max attained in the 2 tests were, respectively: (15.6 +/- 1.1 vs. 15.7 +/- 1.2 km.h-1; [P = .78]) and (54.5 +/- 3.9 vs. 55.2 +/- 4.4 ml.kg-1.min-1; [P = .88]). There was high and significant correlation of VO2max between the 2 tests with a 15-day interval between them [r = 0.97; P < .001]. CONCLUSION: The modified Heck protocol was reproducible, and the 15-day interval between the ergospirometric testing was insufficient to significantly modify the soccer players' VO2max values.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to typify cardiorespiratory and metabolic adaptation capacity at race pace of high-level triathletes during simulations of short distance triathlon swimming sector, first transition and cycling sector. Six national and international-level triathletes performed a 1500 m swimming trial followed by a transition and one hour on ergocycle at race pace, with sequenced measures of blood lactate concentration, gas exchange and heart rate recording. The mean speed obtained in the swimming sector was 1.29+/-0.07 m s(-1), matching 98+/-2% of MAS (Maximal Aerobic Speed), lactate concentration 6.8+/-2.1 mM and heart rate 162+/-15 beats min(-1). In the cycling sector, the mean power was 266+/-34 W, matching 77+/-10% of MAP (Maximal Aerobic Power), oxygen uptake 3788+/-327 mL min(-1) (82.8% of VO2max), heart rate 162+/-13 beats min(-1) (92% of maximal HR) and ventilation 112.8+/-20.8 L min(-1). MAS was correlated with performance in swimming sector (r = 0.944; P < 0.05). Despite intake 1.08+/-0.44 L of a solution with 8% of sugars, a significant loss of body weight (2.80%; P < 0.01) was observed. Changes in cycling power, speed and frequency, especially towards the end of the effort, were also found. By contrast, differences in lactate concentration and in cardiorespiratory or metabolic variables between the end of the swimming sector and the end of the first transition did not appear. In conclusion, this study remarks different relative intensities in cycling and swimming sectors. The observed loss of body weight does not modify pedalling economy in national and international-level athletes during the cycling sector, where effort intensity adapts itself to the one found in individual lactate threshold. However, changes in competition tactics and other effects, such as drafting in swimming and cycling, could alter the intensities established in this study for each sector.  相似文献

The responses of serum myocellular proteins and hormones to exercise were studied in ten well-trained middle-distance runners [maximal oxygen consumption (O2max)?=?69.4?(5.1)?ml?·?kg?1?·?min?1] during 3 recovery days and compared to various measures of physical performance. The purpose was to establish the duration of recovery from typical intermittent middle-distance running exercises. The subjects performed, in random, order two 28-min treadmill running exercises at a velocity associated with O2max: 14 bouts of 60-s runs with 60?s of rest between each run (IR60) and 7 bouts of 120-s runs with 120?s of rest between each run (IR120). Before the exercises (pre- exercise), 2?h after, and 1, 2 and 3 days after the exercises, the same series of measurements were performed, including those for serum levels of the myocellular proteins creatine kinase, myoglobin and carbonic anhydrase III (S-CK, S-Mb and S-CA III, respectively), serum hormones testosterone, Luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone and cortisol (S-testosterone, S-LH, S-FSH and S-cortisol, respectively) and various performance parameters: maximal vertical jump height (CMJ) and stride length, heart rate and ratings of perceived exertion during an 8-min run at 15?km?·?h?1 (SL15?km·h?1, HR15?km?·?h?1 and RPE15?km?·?h?1, respectively). Two hours after the end of both exercise bouts the concentration of each measured serum protein had increased significantly (P?15?km?·?h?1 or CMJ. During the recovery days only S-CK was significantly raised (P?P?15?km?·?h?1 (P?120 the post-exercise responses returned to their pre-exercise levels within the 3 days of recovery. The present findings suggest that a single 28-min intermittent middle-distance running exercise does not induce changes in serum hormones of well-trained runners during recovery over 3 days, while changes in S-CK, CMJ and RPE15?km?·?h?1 indicate that 2–3 days of light training may be needed before the recovery at muscle level is complete.  相似文献

Heart rate (HR) is higher during dynamic arm exercise than during leg exercise at equal oxygen consumption levels, but the physiological background for this difference is not completely understood. The vagally mediated beat-to-beat R-R interval fluctuation decreases until the level of approximately 50% of maximal oxygen consumption during an incremental bicycle exercise, but the vagal responses to arm exercise are not well known. Changes in autonomic modulation of HR were compared during arm and leg exercise by measuring beat-to-beat R-R interval variability from a Poincaré plot normalized for the average R-R interval (SD1n), a measure of vagal activity, in 14 healthy male subjects (age 20 +/- 4 years) who performed graded bicycle and arm cranking tests until exhaustion. Seven of the subjects also performed the dynamic arm and leg tests after beta-adrenergic blockade (propranolol 0.2 mg kg-1 i.v.). More rapid reduction occurred in SD1n during the low-intensity level of dynamic arm exercise than during dynamic leg exercise without beta-blockade (e.g. 11 +/- 6 vs. 20 +/- 10 at the oxygen consumption level of 1.2 l min-1; P < 0.001) and with beta-blockade (e.g. 13 +/- 4 vs. 25 +/- 10 at the level of 1.0 l min-1; P < 0.05), and the mean HR was significantly higher during submaximal arm work than during leg work in both cases (e.g. during beta-blockade 81 +/- 12 vs. 74 +/- 6 beats min-1 at the level of 1.0 l min-1; P < 0.05). These data show that dynamic arm exercise results in more rapid withdrawal of vagal outflow than dynamic leg exercise.  相似文献

The mechanisms behind the vasodilatory effect of insulin are not fully understood, but nitric oxide plays an important role. We have investigated the possibility that insulin mediates vasodilatation in the human skeletal muscle via an increase in extracellular adenosine concentrations. In eight healthy subjects (H) and in four subjects with a complete, high (C5-C6/7) spinal cord injury (SCI) a hyperinsulinaemic (480 mU min-1 kg-1), isoglycaemic clamp was performed. SCI subjects were included as it has been proposed that adenosine and adenine nucleotides may be released from nerve endings in the skeletal muscle. Adenosine concentrations in the extracellular fluid (ECF) of skeletal muscle in the thigh were measured by means of the microdialysis technique. Leg blood flow (LBF) was measured by termodilution. In response to insulin infusion, LBF always increased (P < 0.05) (from 228 +/- 25 and 318 +/- 18 mL min-1 to 451 +/- 41 and 530 +/- 29 mL min-1, SCI and H, respectively [mean +/- SEM]). Concentrations of adenosine in the muscle ECF did not change with infusion of insulin and did not differ between groups (before: 147 +/- 55 [SCI] and 207 +/- 108 [H] nmol L-1; during: 160 +/- 36 [SCI] and 165 +/- 74 [H] nmol L-1). No significant correlation between concentrations of adenosine and corresponding LBF rates was achieved (LBF=[-0.0936. Adenosine] + 475. R=-0.092, P=0.22, number of samples=181, number of subjects=12). Conclusion: the mechanism by which insulin mediates an increase in skeletal muscle blood flow is not associated with adenosine in the ECF.  相似文献
