Oxygen Uptake Kinetics during Exercise

This thesis has investigated oxygen uptake ( i r02) kinetic regulation during whole body exercise by investigating not only the breath-by-breath V O ~ response to a change in work rate but also incorporating an examination of data analysis processes and simulation of a physiological V O ~ model. Five experiments have been completed to answer the following questions: Experiment 1: What effects d...

Oxygen uptake kinetics during exercise.

The characteristics of oxygen uptake (VO2) kinetics differ with exercise intensity. When exercise is performed at a given work rate which is below lactate threshold (LT), VO2 increases exponentially to a steady-state level. Neither the slope of the increase in VO2 with respect to work rate nor the time constant of VO2 responses has been found to be a function of work rate within this domain, in...

Neuromuscular fatigability during repeated-sprint exercise in male athletes.

PURPOSE This study aimed to determine the pattern of neuromuscular fatigability that manifests during repeated-sprint running exercise. METHODS Twelve male participants (mean ± SD: age, 25 ± 6 yr; stature, 180 ± 7 cm; body mass, 77 ± 7 kg), currently training and competing in intermittent sprint sports, performed a repeated maximal sprint running protocol (12 × 30 m, 30-s rest periods). Pre- ...

Oxygen uptake kinetics during two bouts of heavy cycling separated by fatiguing sprint exercise in humans.

We tested the hypothesis that O(2) uptake (Vo(2)) kinetics at the onset of heavy exercise would be altered in a state of muscle fatigue and prior metabolic acidosis. Eight well-trained cyclists completed two identical bouts of 6-min cycling exercise at >85% of peak Vo(2) separated by three successive bouts of 30 s of sprint cycling. Not only was baseline Vo(2) elevated after prior sprint exerci...
