We examined the extent to which peripheral changes affect EMG signal adjustments during repeated sprinting in temperate and hot conditions.
Randomised, crossover study.
Ten males performed 10×6-s 'all-out' cycling sprints (recovery=30s) in either a temperate (24°C/30%rH) or a hot (35°C/40%rH) environment with concomitant surface EMG recordings of the vastus lateralis (VL) and rectus femoris (RF). In addition, peak-to-peak M-wave amplitudes were obtained for each muscle after each sprint (i.e., 15s into recovery).
For both the VL and RF muscles RMS decreased across sprint repetitions (P<0.01), while significantly lower values for the VL (P=0.012), but not the RF (P=0.096), occurred in hot vs. temperate conditions. M-wave-normalised RMS for VL muscle decreased across sprint repetitions (P=0.030), with no condition or interaction effects (both P>0.621). M-wave-normalised RMS for the RF muscle was lower in the heat (P<0.034), with no significant sprint or interaction effects (both P>0.240).
Controlling for changes in maximal M-wave amplitude of the quadriceps muscles after each bout of a repeated cycling exercise in hot and temperate conditions allows researchers to account for fatigue- and/or heat-induced neural and peripheral adjustments.
我们研究了在温带和热环境下重复冲刺时,外周变化对肌电图信号调整的影响程度。
随机交叉研究。
10 名男性在温带(24°C/30%rH)或热环境(35°C/40%rH)下进行 10 次×6 秒的“全力”自行车冲刺(恢复时间为 30 秒),同时记录股外侧肌(VL)和股直肌(RF)的表面肌电图。此外,在每次冲刺后(即恢复 15 秒后),对每块肌肉进行峰峰值 M 波幅度的测量。
对于 VL 和 RF 肌肉,RMS 在冲刺重复中均降低(P<0.01),而在热环境下,VL (P=0.012)的数值明显更低,但 RF (P=0.096)则不然。VL 肌肉的 M 波归一化 RMS 随冲刺重复次数而降低(P=0.030),无条件或交互作用效应(均 P>0.621)。RF 肌肉的 M 波归一化 RMS 在热环境下较低(P<0.034),且无显著的冲刺或交互作用效应(均 P>0.240)。
在热和温带条件下,对每次重复自行车运动后的股四头肌最大 M 波幅度进行控制,可以让研究人员解释疲劳和/或热诱导的神经和外周调整。
