Cold water immersion (CWI) is used by endurance athletes to speed recovery between exercise bouts, but little evidence is available on the effects of CWI on subsequent endurance performance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of CWI following an acute bout of interval training on 5000 m run performance 24 hrs after interval training, perceived muscle soreness (PMS), range of motion (ROM), thigh circumference (TC), and perceived exertion (RPE). Nine endurance-trained males completed 2 trials, each consisting of an interval training session of 8 repetitions of 1200 m at a running pace equal to 75% of VOpeak, either a control or CWI treatment, and a timed 5000 m run 24 hrs post interval training session. CWI was performed for 12 min at 12 degrees Celsius on the legs. Recovery treatments were performed in a counterbalanced design. Run time for 5000 m was not different between the CWI and control trials (CWI = 1317.33 ± 128.33 sec, control = 1303.44 ± 105.53 sec; p = 0.48). PMS increased significantly from baseline to immediately post exercise (BL = 1.17 ± 0.22, POST = 2.81 ± 0.52; p 0.02) and remained elevated from baseline to 24 hrs post exercise (POST24 = 2.19 ± 0.32; p 0.02), but no difference was observed between the treatments. No differences were observed for the interaction between time and treatment for TC (λ = 0.73, p = 0.15) and ROM (λ = 0.49; p = 0.10). CWI performed immediately following an interval training exercise bout did not enhance subsequent 5000 m run performance or reduce PMS. CWI may not provide a recovery or performance advantage when athletes are accustomed to the demands of the prior exercise bout.
耐力运动员使用冷水浸泡（CWI）来加速运动间歇期的恢复，但关于CWI对后续耐力表现影响的证据很少。本研究的目的是调查在急性间歇训练后进行CWI对间歇训练24小时后的5000米跑成绩、肌肉酸痛感知（PMS）、关节活动范围（ROM）、大腿围度（TC）和主观用力感觉（RPE）的影响。九名耐力训练的男性完成了2次试验，每次试验包括一次间歇训练，以等于VO峰值75%的跑步速度进行8次1200米重复跑，要么进行对照处理，要么进行CWI处理，并且在间歇训练后24小时进行一次定时5000米跑。在12摄氏度下对腿部进行12分钟的CWI。恢复处理采用平衡设计。CWI试验和对照试验之间5000米跑的时间没有差异（CWI = 1317.33 ± 128.33秒，对照 = 1303.44 ± 105.53秒；p = 0.48）。PMS从基线到运动后即刻显著增加（基线 = 1.17 ± 0.22，运动后即刻 = 2.81 ± 0.52；p < 0.02），并且从基线到运动后24小时一直保持升高（运动后24小时 = 2.19 ± 0.32；p < 0.02），但处理之间未观察到差异。对于TC（λ = 0.73，p = 0.15）和ROM（λ = 0.49；p = 0.10），时间和处理之间的交互作用未观察到差异。在间歇训练运动后立即进行CWI并不能提高后续的5000米跑成绩或降低PMS。当运动员习惯了先前运动的要求时，CWI可能不会提供恢复或表现优势。
