Book Comparison Between Flume and Treadmill Testing for Maximal Aerobic Capacity in Trained Swimmers

Download or read book Comparison Between Flume and Treadmill Testing for Maximal Aerobic Capacity in Trained Swimmers written by Daniel James Monarrez and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: Treadmill testing and cycle ergometry are the most common modes of exercise testing for assessing maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max). Most sedentary subjects and trained runners have higher VO2max measurements during treadmill testing compared to cycle testing, suggesting mode of exercise affects VO2max. However, trained cyclists attain higher VO2max values on cycle ergometry than treadmill testing due to the specific adaptations of cycle training. Front-crawl swimming is a dynamic exercise involving both upper and lower limbs. The purpose of this study was to determine if trained swimmers have higher VO2max values when swimming compared to running. Methods: Fourteen trained swimmers (7 M, 7 F; 22.6 ℗ł 3.6 years) performed VO2max testing on a treadmill and in a swim flume. For the flume test, subjects breathed through a 2-way non-rebreathing snorkel that collected their expired breath for analysis. For the treadmill test, subjects used a mouthpiece, nose clip, and 2-way non-rebreathing valve. For both modes of exercise, the subjects' expired air was collected into a mixing chamber and analyzed by a metabolic cart. The subjects exercised at increasing intensities until volitional fatigue on both tests. Blood lactate was assessed before and after each test. Results: The subjects had higher VO2max values on the treadmill than in the swim flume (54.6 ℗ł 7.1 vs. 48.1 ℗ł 9.6 ml kg-1 min-1, p

Book Human Physiological Work Capacity

Download or read book Human Physiological Work Capacity written by R. J. Shephard and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1978-07-06 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the objectives of investigations carried out within the Human Adaptability section of the International Biological Programme was to obtain comparable data on population characteristics over a wide range of ecosystems. This volume provides a brief survey of the variables affecting the physiological work capacity of various populations. The items considered include body weight, fatness, maximum oxygen intake, muscular strength, and the process of oxygen transport from the air to the working muscles. The discussion is based largely on data collected under the auspices of the IBP, using methods standardised for the programme. The influence of race, heredity, environment and disease are considered, and a detailed analysis is made of various classes of athlete. The material will be useful to human and environmental physiologists, anthropologists, and those interested in physical education.
