“…The ergogenic effect on peak power output was considered to be negligible in most competitive and training settings [38]. Others have found that oxygen supplementation (F i O 2 = 0.55-1.00) during recovery from intermittent sprinting neither enhances subsequent performance nor alters oxygen uptake ( _ VO 2 ), heart rate or ventilation during submaximal or maximal exercise [45][46][47].…”

Hyperoxia results from the inhalation of mixtures of gas containing higher partial pressures of oxygen (O) than normal air at sea level. Exercise in hyperoxia affects the cardiorespiratory, neural and hormonal systems, as well as energy metabolism in humans. In contrast to short-term exposure to hypoxia (i.e. a reduced partial pressure of oxygen), acute hyperoxia may enhance endurance and sprint interval performance by accelerating recovery processes. This narrative literature review, covering 89 studies published between 1975 and 2016, identifies the acute ergogenic effects and health concerns associated with hyperoxia during exercise; however, long-term adaptation to hyperoxia and exercise remain inconclusive. The complexity of the biological responses to hyperoxia, as well as the variations in (1) experimental designs (e.g. exercise intensity and modality, level of oxygen, number of participants), (2) muscles involved (arms and legs) and (3) training status of the participants may account for the discrepancies.

“…Although the use of oxygen during exercise appears to be beneficial in long‐term exercise (Weltman, Katch, Sady, 1978; Adams & Welch, 1980; Welch, 1982), its effects when administered during recovery alone or during short‐term intensive intervals are controversial (Welch, 1982; Yamaji & Shephard, 1985; Winter, Snell, Stray‐Gundersen, 1989; Robbins et al., 1992; Maeda & Yasukouchi, 1997). The results of the present study suggested that the breathing of supplemental oxygen in exercise consisted of short‐term high intensity intervals did neither hasten recovery nor delay [H + ] nor lactate accumulation.…”

The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the breathing of hyperoxic gas affects hemoglobin oxygen saturation (S(a)O(2)) and blood acidosis during intense intermittent exercise and recovery in sprint runners. The hypothesis was that the breathing of hyperoxic gas prevents S(a)O(2) from decreasing, delays blood acidosis during the exercise and improves the rate of heart rate recovery after the exercise. Nine sprinters ran three sets of 300 m at different velocities on a treadmill in normoxia (NOX) and in two hyperoxic conditions (ERHOX and RHOX; F(I)O(2) 0.40) in a randomized order. In ERHOX the inspired air was hyperoxic during the entire exercise and recovery and in RHOX the hyperoxic air was only inhaled during recovery periods. Blood pH and S(a)O(2) were measured from fingertip blood samples taken after each set of runs. The mean heart rate for the final 15 s of the last run in each set (HR(work)), the mean heart rate for the final 15 s of the first minute of recovery (HR(rec)) and the difference of HR(work) and HR(rec) (HR(dec)) were determined. In NOX, S(a)O(2) decreased from 95.0 +/- 2.0% to 88.7 +/- 2.0% (p < 0.001) but S(a)O(2) did not change in ERHOX (from 95.4 +/- 1.3% to 95.9 +/- 1.8%). A significant correlation was observed between the S(a)O(2) decrease in NOX and the effect of hyperoxia on blood pH in ERHOX (r = 0.63) and on HRdec in both ERHOX (r = 0.74) and RHOX (r = 0.69). We concluded that hemoglobin oxygen de-saturation occurred during intensive intermittent exercise in normoxia but hyperoxic gas during the exercise prevents S(a)O(2) from decreasing. Furthermore, the present results suggested that the beneficial effects of hyperoxia on heart rate recovery and blood acidosis during intensive intermittent exercise were related to hemoglobin de-saturation in normoxia.

This investigation tested the hypothesis that breathing oxygen-enriched air (F(i)O(2) =1.00) during recovery enhances peak (P(peak)) and mean power (P(mean)) output during repeated high-intensity exercise. Twelve elite male swimmers (21 ± 3 years, 192.1 ± 5.9 cm, 79.1 ± 8.2 kg) inhaled either hyperoxic (HOX) or normoxic (NOX) air during 6-min recovery periods between five repetitions of high-intensity bench swimming, each involving 40 maximal armstrokes. Oxygen partial pressure (pO(2)) and saturation (SO(2)), [H(+)], pH, base excess and blood lactate concentration were measured before and after all intervals. The production of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) hydrogen peroxide was measured before, directly after and 15 min after the test. P(peak) and P(mean) with HOX recovery were significantly higher than with NOX throughout the third, fourth and fifth intervals (P<0.001-0.04). With HOX, electromyography activity was lower during the third, fourth and fifth intervals than during the first (P=0.05-0.001), with no such changes in NOX (P=0.99). There were no differences in blood lactate, pH, [H(+)] or base excess and ROS production at any time point with either HOX or NOX recovery. These findings demonstrate that the P(peak) and P(mean) of elite swimmers performing high-intensity intervals can be improved by exposure to oxygen-enriched air during recovery.
