Speeding of VO2 kinetics in response to endurance-training in older and young women

Abstract: The goal of this study was to examine the time-course of changes in oxygen uptake kinetics (τVO(2p)) during step-transitions from 20 W to moderate-intensity cycling in response to endurance-training in older (O) and young (Y) women. Six O (69 ± 7 years) and 8 Y (25 ± 5 years) were tested pre-training, and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks of training. VO(2p) was measured breath-by-breath using a mass spectrometer. Changes in deoxygenated-hemoglobin concentration of the vastus lateralis (∆[HHb]) were measured by near-in… Show more

“…For instance, a slower rate of adjustment of the oxidative phosphorylation has been shown to be partly determined by impairments in blood flow distribution (24,25) and has been proposed to disturb cellular homeostasis and reduce exercise tolerance due to an increase in metabolic by-products associated with nonoxidative metabolism (4). This rapid improvement in vascular responses might improve O 2 provision to the active tissues and thus reduce exercise-related fatigue.…”

“…Although technical limitations make the measurement of rapid changes in blood flow within the muscle challenging in humans, recent studies have shown that an estimation of changes in muscle O 2 delivery can be obtained using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) derived deoxyhaemoglobin concentration (DHHb) data in combination with measures of VO 2 (DiMenna et al 2010;Harper et al 2008;Murias et al 2010a;Murias et al 2010b). Using this methodology, temporal adjustments in muscle O 2 delivery during periods of work and recovery can be derived and insights can be gained into the mechanisms controlling the adjustments in muscle O 2 utilization during intermittent exercise.…”

“…In healthy skeletal muscle, faster V O 2 kinetics after endurance exercise training results primarily from improved oxidative capacity and/or allosteric regulation of mitochondrial respiration (i.e., 1"parallel activation"; Refs. 18,35,36,86,133,207,221,222,242,338,339) (see also Figs. 6 and 7).…”
