Occurrence of dystonic-type response to physical stress in soccer players

“…In accordance with our recommendations on the correct formation of comparison groups (Mykhalyuk, 2015;Mikhalyuk & Gunina, 2017;Mykhaliuk et al, 2022b), in order to establish beyond doubt the origin of "infinite tone" in soccer players, groups of athletes with the same sports qualification and age were formed with the occurrence of "infinite tone" after dosed physical activity in the form of the submaximal PWC 170 test and with its absence. For this we compared the data of 68 high-class soccer players with the presence of "infinite tone" and 69 high-class soccer players with the absence of "infinite tone", 251 advanced soccer players with "infinite tone" and 179 advanced soccer players with the absence of "infinite tone", and 69 intermediate soccer players with "infinite tone" with 105 soccer players of similar skill level with the absence of "infinite tone".…”

“…Blood pressure was measured on the right arm three times with an interval of 5 minutes, using the lowest result (Abramov et al, 2014). Physical working capacity was assessed using a Corival cycle ergometer (Lode, Netherlands) (Mykhalyuk, 2007;Mykhaliuk et al, 2020), measuring heart rate and blood pressure at rest sitting on the cycle ergometer, heart rate and blood pressure after the first and second physical load (Table 2), as well as heart rate and blood pressure at 5 minutes of the recovery period (Mikhalyuk & Gunina, 2017;Mykhalyuk et al, 2022a).…”
