Prior exercise, whether heavy or low-intensity, attenuates the oxygen uptake (VO(2)) slow component. However, this reduction does not improve exercise tolerance or time to exhaustion.

Area of Science:

  • Exercise Physiology
  • Human Performance
  • Cardiorespiratory Fitness

Background:

  • Decreases in oxygen uptake (VO(2)) slow component observed after heavy exercise.
  • Effects of prior low-intensity exercise on VO(2) slow component are controversial.
  • VO(2) slow component may influence exercise tolerance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of prior low-intensity exercise on the VO(2) slow component.
  • To test if an attenuated VO(2) slow component enhances exercise tolerance.

Main Methods:

  • Ten subjects performed constant-load cycling to exhaustion.
  • Protocols included no prior exercise, prior heavy exercise, or prior low-intensity exercise.
  • VO(2) slow component quantified using Delta VO(2 (end-2)).

Main Results:

  • Prior heavy and low-intensity exercise significantly reduced the VO(2) slow component.
  • Reductions were 47% (6HPE), 29% (12LPE), and 17% (6LPE).
  • Time to exhaustion remained unaffected by prior exercise.

Conclusions:

  • Prior exercise attenuates the VO(2) slow component regardless of intensity.
  • Attenuated VO(2) slow component does not enhance time to exhaustion.
  • Exercise tolerance is not solely determined by the VO(2) slow component.
