The 30-15 Intermittent Fitness Test (30-15IFT) is an attractive alternative to classic continuous incremental field tests for defining a reference velocity for interval training prescription in team sport athletes. The aim of the present study was to compare cardiorespiratory and autonomic responses to 30-15IFT with those observed during a standard continuous test (CT). In 20 team sport players (20.9 +/- 2.2 years), cardiopulmonary parameters were measured during exercise and for 10 minutes after both tests. Final running velocity, peak lactate ([La]peak), and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) were also measured. Parasympathetic function was assessed during the postexercise recovery phase via heart rate (HR) recovery time constant (HRR[tau]) and HR variability (HRV) vagal-related indices. At exhaustion, no difference was observed in peak oxygen uptake VO2peak), respiratory exchange ratio, HR, or RPE between 30-15IFT and CT. In contrast, 30-15IFT led to significantly higher minute ventilation, [La]peak, and final velocity than CT (p < 0.05 for all parameters). All maximal cardiorespiratory variables observed during both tests were moderately to well correlated (e.g., r = 0.76, p = 0.001 for [latin capital VO2peak). Regarding ventilatory thresholds (VThs), all cardiorespiratory measurements were similar and well correlated between the 2 tests. Parasympathetic function was lower after 30-15IFT than after CT, as indicated by significantly longer HHR[tau] (81.9 +/- 18.2 vs. 60.5 +/- 19.5 for 30-15IFT and CT, respectively, p < 0.001) and lower HRV vagal-related indices (i.e., the root mean square of successive R-R intervals differences [rMSSD]: 4.1 +/- 2.4 and 7.0 +/- 4.9 milliseconds, p < 0.05). In conclusion, the 30-15IFT is accurate for assessing VThs and VO2peak, but it alters postexercise parasympathetic function more than a continuous incremental protocol.
30-15间歇体能测试(30-15IFT)是一种颇具吸引力的替代方法,可用于替代传统的连续递增性场地测试,以确定团队运动运动员间歇训练处方的参考速度。本研究的目的是比较30-15IFT与标准连续测试(CT)期间观察到的心肺和自主神经反应。在20名团队运动运动员(20.9±2.2岁)中,在运动期间以及两项测试后的10分钟内测量心肺参数。还测量了最终跑步速度、血乳酸峰值([La]peak)和主观用力程度分级(RPE)。在运动后恢复阶段,通过心率(HR)恢复时间常数(HRR[tau])和HR变异性(HRV)迷走神经相关指标评估副交感神经功能。在力竭时,30-15IFT和CT之间的最大摄氧量峰值(VO2peak)、呼吸交换率、HR或RPE均未观察到差异。相比之下,30-15IFT导致的分钟通气量、[La]peak和最终速度显著高于CT(所有参数p<0.05)。两项测试期间观察到的所有最大心肺变量均呈中度至高度相关(例如,[La]peak的r=0.76,p=0.001)。关于通气阈值(VThs),两项测试之间所有心肺测量结果相似且相关性良好。30-15IFT后的副交感神经功能低于CT后,表现为HRR[tau]显著延长(30-15IFT和CT分别为81.9±18.2和60.5±19.5,p<0.001)以及HRV迷走神经相关指标降低(即连续R-R间期差值的均方根[rMSSD]:4.1±2.4和7.0±4.9毫秒,p<0.05)。总之,30-15IFT在评估VThs和VO2peak方面是准确的,但与连续递增方案相比,它对运动后副交感神经功能的影响更大。
