The Effects Of Physical Fitness And Body Composition On Oxygen Consumption And Heart Rate Recovery After High-intensity Exercise

The aim of this study was to investigate the potential relationship between excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC), heart rate recovery (HRR) and their respective time constants (tvo 2 and t HR) and body composition and aerobic fitness (VO 2max) variables after an anaerobic effort. 14 professional cyclists (age=28.4±4.8 years, height=176.0±6.7 cm, body mass=74.4±8.1 kg, VO 2max=66. 8±7.6 mL·kg 1·min 1) were recruited. Each athlete made 3 visits to the laboratory with 24 h between each visit. During the first visit, a total and segmental body composition assessment was carried out. During the second, the athletes undertook an incremental test to determine VO 2max. In the final visit, EPOC (15-min) and HRR were measured after an all-out 30 s Wingate test. The results showed that EPOC is positively associated with % body fat (r=0.64), total body fat (r=0.73), fat-free mass (r=0.61) and lower limb fat-free mass (r=0.55) and negatively associated with HRR (r= 0.53, p<0.05 for all). HRR had a significant negative correlation with total body fat and % body fat (r= 0.62, r= 0.56 respectively, p<0.05 for all). These findings indicate that VO 2max does not influence HRR or EPOC after high-intensity exercise. Even in short-term exercise, the major metabolic disturbance due to higher muscle mass and total muscle mass may increase EPOC. However, body fat impedes HRR and delays recovery of oxygen consumption after effort in highly trained athletes. © 2012 Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart New York.338621626Ba, A., Delliaux, S., Bregeon, F., Levy, S., Jammes, Y., Post-exercise heart rate recovery in healthy, obese, and COPD subjects: Relationships with blood lactic acid and PaO2 levels (2008) Clin Res Cardiol, 98, pp. 52-58Bell, G.J., Snydmiller, G.D., Davies, D.S., Quinney, H.A., Relationship between aerobic fitness and metabolic recovery from intermittent exercise in endurance athletes (1997) Canadian Journal of Applied Physiology, 22 (1), pp. 78-85Bertuzzi, R.C.M., Franchini, E., Ugrinowitsch, C., Kokubun, E., Lima-Silva, A.E., Pires, F.O., Nakamura, F.Y., Kiss, M.M., Predicting MAOD using only a supramaximal exhaustive test (2010) Int J Sports Med, 31, pp. 477-481Borsheim, E., Bahr, R., Effect of exercise intensity, duration and mode on post-exercise oxygen consumption (2003) Sports Medicine, 33 (14), pp. 1037-1060. , DOI 10.2165/00007256-200333140-00002Bosquet, L., Gamelin, F.-X., Berthoin, S., Is aerobic endurance a determinant of cardiac autonomic regulation?

Processamento da casca de mandioca na alimentação de ovinos: desempenho, características de carcaça, morfologia ruminal e eficiência econômica Processing of cassava peel in sheep feeding: performance, carcass characteristics, ruminal morphology and economic efficiency

Avaliou-se o efeito de diferentes formas de processamento da casca de mandioca na alimentação sobre o desempenho e as características de carcaça, a morfologia ruminal e a viabilidade técnico-econômica da criação de ovinos. Foram utilizados 20 ovinos machos da raça Santa Inês, desmamados, com peso inicial de 19,02±0,21 kg e 90 dias de vida. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado com cinco repetições por dieta. Durante o período experimental de 84 dias, incluindo 14 dias de adaptação, os animais foram mantidos em sistema de semiconfinamento em pastagem de Brachiaria decumbens. Foram avaliadas quatro formas de processamento da casca de mandioca: desidratada triturada em peneira de 12 ou de 5 mm; úmida triturada e ensilada; e úmida triturada e hidrolisada com 0,5% de cal virgem (óxido de cálcio - CaO). O peso médio ao abate foi 30,72±1,46 kg. Não houve influência do tipo de processamento da casca sobre as características de desempenho analisadas, as características quantitativas de carcaça e a morfologia ruminal, sendo influenciado somente o rendimento de paleta. A casca de mandioca hidrolisada foi a que promoveu melhor eficiência econômica. Os tipos de processamento da casca de mandioca não alteram o desempenho, as características de carcaça, os rendimentos de corte e a morfologia ruminal dos ovinos Santa Inês.<br>The objective of this trial was to evaluate the effect of different forms of processing of cassava peel in sheep feeding on performance traits, carcass, morphology and rumen and economic technical feasibility. Twenty non-castrated male Santa Ines lambs of 19.02±0.21 kg of initial body weight and 90 days of age at the beginning of the study were used in this trial. The design was completely randomized design with five replications per treatment. During the experimental period of 84 days, including 14 days of adaptation, animals were kept in semi-confinement on Brachiaria decumbens. Four forms of cassava peel processing were evaluated: dried cassava peel ground through 12-mm sieve; dried cassava peel ground through 5-mm sieve; ground and ensiled cassava peel, and wet, ground hydrolyzed with 0.5% lime (calcium oxide - CaO). The average weight at slaughter was 30.72±1.46 kg. There was no influence of the type of processing on the performance variables analyzed, quantitative carcass characteristics or ruminal morphology; only the values of width and leg yield palette were influenced. Hydrolyzed cassava peel showed the best economic efficiency between treatments. The different methods of processing cassava peel do not affect performance, carcass characteristics, yield cuts or rumen morphology of Santa Ines sheep
