We examined the effects of inserting 3-s recovery periods during high-intensity cycling exercise at 25-s and 10-s intervals on pulmonary oxygen uptake (V̇o), muscle deoxygenation [deoxyhemoglobin (HHb)], their associated kinetics (τ), and energy system contributions. Eleven men (24 ± 3 yr) completed two trials of three cycling protocols: an 8-min continuous protocol (CONT) and two 8-min intermittent exercise protocols with work-to-rest periods of 25 s to 3 s (25INT) and 10 s to 3 s (10INT). Each protocol began with a step-transition from a 20-W baseline to a power output (PO) of 60% between lactate threshold and maximal V̇o (Δ60). This PO was maintained for 8 min in CONT, whereas 3-s periods of 20-W cycling were inserted every 10 s and 25 s after the transition to Δ60 in 10INT and 25INT, respectively. Breath-by-breath gas exchange measured by mass spectrometry and turbine and vastus lateralis [HHb] measured by near-infrared spectroscopy were recorded throughout. Arterialized-capillary lactate concentration ([Lac]) was obtained before and 2 min postexercise. The τV̇o was lowest ( < 0.05) for 10INT (24 ± 4 s) and 25INT (23 ± 5 s) compared with CONT (28 ± 4 s), whereas HHb kinetics did not differ ( > 0.05) between conditions. Postexercise [Lac] was lowest ( < 0.05) for 10INT (7.0 ± 1.7 mM), was higher for 25INT (10.3 ± 1.9 mM), and was greatest in CONT (14.3 ± 3.1 mM). Inserting 3-s recovery periods during heavy-intensity exercise speeded V̇o kinetics and reduced overall V̇o, suggesting an increased reliance on PCr-derived phosphorylation during the work period of INT compared with an identical PO performed continuously. We report novel observations on the effects of differing heavy-intensity work durations between 3-s recovery periods on pulmonary oxygen uptake (V̇o) kinetics, muscle deoxygenation, and energy system contributions. Relative to continuous exercise, V̇o kinetics are faster in intermittent exercise, and increased frequency of 3-s recovery periods improves microvascular O delivery and reduces V̇o and arterialized-capillary lactate concentration. The metabolic burden of identical intensity work is altered when performed intermittently vs. continuously.
我们研究了在 25 秒和 10 秒的间隔高强度自行车运动期间插入 3 秒恢复期对肺氧摄取 (V̇o)、肌肉去氧合 [脱氧血红蛋白 (HHb)]、相关动力学 (τ) 和能量系统贡献的影响。11 名男性(24 ± 3 岁)完成了三个自行车方案的两个试验:连续 8 分钟的方案 (CONT) 和两个 8 分钟的间歇性运动方案,工作-休息期为 25 秒至 3 秒 (25INT) 和 10 秒至 3 秒 (10INT)。每个方案都从 20 瓦的基线到乳酸阈和最大 V̇o (Δ60) 之间的 60%的功率输出 (PO) 进行逐步过渡。CONT 中在 8 分钟内保持此 PO,而在 10INT 和 25INT 中,分别在过渡到 Δ60 后每 10 秒和 25 秒插入 3 秒的 20 瓦自行车运动。通过质谱仪和涡轮机以及股外侧肌 [HHb]测量的呼吸到呼吸气体交换通过近红外光谱进行记录。运动前和运动后 2 分钟测量动脉化毛细血管乳酸浓度 ([Lac])。与 CONT (28 ± 4 s) 相比,10INT (24 ± 4 s) 和 25INT (23 ± 5 s) 的 V̇o 动力学的 τ 最低(<0.05),而 HHb 动力学没有差异(>0.05)。运动后 [Lac] 最低(<0.05)为 10INT(7.0 ± 1.7 mM),25INT 较高(10.3 ± 1.9 mM),CONT 最高(14.3 ± 3.1 mM)。在高强度运动期间插入 3 秒恢复期可加快 V̇o 动力学并降低整体 V̇o,这表明与连续进行的相同 PO 相比,INT 工作期间对 PCr 衍生磷酸化的依赖性增加。我们报告了关于在 3 秒恢复期之间不同的高强度工作持续时间对肺氧摄取 (V̇o) 动力学、肌肉去氧合和能量系统贡献的影响的新观察结果。与连续运动相比,间歇运动的 V̇o 动力学更快,增加 3 秒恢复期的频率可改善微血管 O 输送并降低 V̇o 和动脉化毛细血管乳酸浓度。当以间歇方式而不是连续方式进行时,相同强度工作的代谢负担会发生变化。
