چکیده

This study was carried out to compare blood lactate changes in isocapnic buffering phase in an incremental exercise test between sprinters and long distance runners, and to seek the possibility for predicting aerobic or anaerobic potential from blood lactate changes in isocapnic buffering phase. Gas exchange variables and blood lactate concentration ([lactate]) in six sprinters (SPR) and nine long distance runners (LDR) were measured during an incremental exercise test (30 W.min-1) up to subject's voluntary exhaustion on a cycle ergometer. Using a difference between [lactate] at lactate threshold (LT) and [lactate] at the onset of respiratory compensation phase (RCP) and the peak value of [lactate] obtained during a recovery period from the end of the exercise test, the relative increase in [lactate] during the isocapnic buffering phase ([lactate]ICBP) was assessed. The [lactate] at LT (mean +/- SD) was similar in both groups (1.36 +/- 0.27 for SPR vs. 1.24 +/- 0.24 mmol.l-1 for LDR), while the [lactate] at RCP and the peak value of [lactate] were found to be significantly higher in SPR than in LDR (3.61 +/- 0.33 vs. 2.36 +/- 0.45 mmol.l-1 for RCP, P < 0.001, 10.18 +/- 1.53 vs. 8.10 +/- 1.61 mmol.l-1 for peak, P < 0.05). The [lactate]ICBP showed a significantly higher value in SPR (22.5 +/- 5.9%, P < 0.05) compared to that in LDR (14.2 +/- 5.0%) as a result of a twofold greater increase of [lactate] from LT to RCP (2.25 +/- 0.49 for SPR vs. 1.12 +/- 0.39 mmol.l-1 for LDR). In addition, the [lactate]ICBP inversely correlated with oxygen uptake at LT (VO2LT, r = -0.582, P < 0.05) and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max, r = -0.644, P < 0.01). The results indicate that the [lactate]ICBP is likely to give an index for the integrated metabolic, respiratory and buffering responses at the initial stage of metabolic acidosis derived from lactate accumulation.

Sweating responses and the muscle metaboreflex under mildly hyperthermic conditions in sprinters and distance runners.

To investigate the effects of different training methods on nonthermal sweating during activation of the muscle metaboreflex, we compared sweating responses during postexercise muscle occlusion in endurance runners, sprinters, and untrained men under mild hyperthermia (ambient temperature, 35°C; relative humidity, 50%). Ten endurance runners, nine sprinters, and ten untrained men (maximal oxyge...

Cardiac dimensions over 5 years in highly trained long-distance runners and sprinters.

AIMS We assessed the changes in cardiac morphology between elite endurance-trained runners (n = 42) and elite sprinters (n = 34) over a 5-year period. In addition, we studied the relationship between heart size and maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 max). METHODS At the beginning of 5 consecutive seasons, all athletes underwent an incremental running test to determine VO2 max and a color-coded p...
