Effects of short-term endurance training on muscle deoxygenation trends using NIRS.
Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise 2002 November
PURPOSE: This study examined changes in cardiorespiratory responses and muscle deoxygenation trends to test the hypothesis that both central and peripheral adaptations would contribute to the improvements in VO(2max) and simulated cycling performance after short-term high-intensity training.
METHODS: Eight male cyclists performed an incremental cycle ergometer test to voluntary exhaustion, and a simulated 20-km time trial (20TT) on wind-loaded rollers before and after training (60 min x 5 d x wk(-1) x 3 wk at 85-90% VO(2max). Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was used to evaluate the trend in vastus medialis hemoglobin/myoglobin deoxygenation (Hb/Mb-O(2) during both tests pre- and post-training.
RESULTS: Training induced significant increases (P 0.05) in the VO(2) (4.02 +/- 0.52 to 4.04 +/- 0.51), heart rate (176 +/- 9 to 173 +/- 8 beats x min ) or O pulse (22.4 +/- 3.2 to 23.5 +/- 2.8 mL O(2) x beat(-1)). However, mean muscle deoxygenation during the 20TT was significantly lower after training (-550 +/- 292 to -707 +/- 227 mV, P
CONCLUSION: The significant improvement in VO(max) induced by short-term endurance training in well-trained cyclists was due primarily to central adaptations, whereas the simulated 20TT performance was enhanced due to localized changes in muscle oxygenation.
